HTTP transport collection

Use this page to view or manage HTTP transports. Transports provide request queues between WebSphere Application Server plug-ins for Web servers and Web containers in which the Web modules of applications reside. When you request an application in a Web browser, the request is passed to the Web server, then along the transport to the Web container.

For transitioning users For transitioning users: You can use HTTP transports only on a Version 5.1 or V6.0.x node in a mixed WebSphere Application Server environment. You must use HTTP transport channels instead of HTTP transports to handle your HTTP requests on all of your other nodes.trns

The use of IPv6 (Internet Protocol Version 6) and WS-AT (Web Services Atomic Transactions) are not supported on HTTP transports; they are only supported on HTTP transport channel chains.

To view the HTTP Transport administrative console page, click Servers > Application Servers > server_name > Web Container Settings > Web Container > HTTP Transports.

Host

Specifies the host IP address to bind for transport. If the application server is on a local machine, the host name might be localhost.

Port

Specifies the port to bind for transport. The port number can be any port that currently is not in use on the system. The port number must be unique for each application server instance on a given machine.

For the z/OS platform, a maximum of two ports, one for HTTP requests and one for HTTPS requests, is allowed for each process configured as an HTTP transport. Additional ports can be configured as HTTP transport chains Additional ports can be configured as HTTP transport channels.

SSL Enabled

Specifies whether to protect connections between the WebSphere plug-in and application server with Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). The default is not to use SSL.
