HTTP transport settings

 

Use this page to view and configure an HTTP transport. The name of the page might be that of an SSL setting such as DefaultSSLSettings. This page is not available if you do not have an HTTP transport defined for your system.

You can use HTTP transports only on a V5.1 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.

The use of IPv6 (Internet Protocol V6) 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 panel on the administrative console, click Servers > Application Servers > server_name > Web Container Settings > Web Container > HTTP Transports > host_name.
