Interaction with WebSphere Application Server for Express

IBM Welcome Page V1.1 contains a Web application packaged in an enterprise archive (.ear) file that is deployed into a WebSphere Application Server run-time environment when the IBM Telephone Directory V5.2 application is deployed. After the IBM Welcome Page V1.1 application is deployed, it handles requests routed to it through the application server. The application server can provide various access paths and have various security features enabled for the server or specifically for the application. Requests must pass through the server to be routed to and handled by the IBM Welcome Page V1.1 application. When requests reach the application, the application handles the required LDAP interactions.
