Outbound Ports collection

An outbound port represents a single port for a WSDL-defined service provider. It provides the configuration of invocation of the Web service.

To view this administrative console page, click Service integration > Buses > [Content Pane] bus_name > [Services] Outbound Services > [Content Pane] service_name > Outbound Ports.

To browse or change a listed item, select its name in the list.

To act on one or more of the listed items, select the check boxes next to the names of the items that you want to act on, then use the buttons provided.

To change what entries are listed, or to change what information is shown for entries in the list, use the Filter settings.

Requests and responses to an outbound service can be sent across any binding (for example SOAP over HTTP or SOAP over JMS) that is available to both the service integration bus and the external Web service. Each available binding is represented by a port.

You can associate JAX-RPC handler lists with ports, so that the handlers can monitor activity at the port, and take appropriate action depending upon the sender and content of each message that passes through the port. If the external Web service requires HTTP basic authentication, you can use a JAX-RPC handler list to provide an HTTP basic authentication header.

You can set the levels of security to be applied to messages. The security level can be set independently for request and response messages.

Because the service is hosted externally, you might also need to enable proxy server authentication to get access to the Internet.
