Modifying default bindings at the server or cell level for policy sets

You can define Default bindings for HTTP transport, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) transport, WS-Addressing, WS-ReliableMessaging, and WS-Security policies.

Before you begin

To create or modify server default bindings, you must first install and configure an application server.

About this task

You can modify default cell bindings that are delivered with the product. Default bindings are not linked to a particular policy set and they provide default settings that might be used for sharing configuration information across multiple applications.

You can create default bindings for individual application servers and customize those bindings to meet your requirements. The policy set bindings are optional. If a policy set binding is not defined at the server level, then the default cell bindings are used. To modify these default bindings, complete the following steps:

Procedure

  1. Open the administrative console.
  2. To modify the cell default bindings, click Services > Policy sets > Default policy set bindings.

    To modify server default bindings, select Servers > Application servers > application_server_name >Default policy set bindings.

  3. Select the policy set binding that you want to modify and complete the fields in the resulting panels. Each policy set binding has its own panels for configuring the binding.
  4. You can create server default bindings for each of the policies of the quality of service. The policy set bindings can be added to and removed from the configuration. Select Add, then select the binding that you want to add. To delete a binding, select the check box for the name of the binding, and select Delete.
  5. Click Save to save your changes to the master configuration.

Results

When you finish these steps, the default policy set bindings are modified. If you created default bindings at the server level, those default bindings are used instead of the default bindings at the cell level.

Example

If you have configured an application server, server1, and you want to define the default WS-ReliableMessaging bindings for the applications deployed on that server1 application server, first locate server1 in the Application servers collection and click the instance. Click the Default policy set bindings link, then click Add. Locate WS-ReliableMessaging from the list. Click the WS-ReliableMessaging link to display the WS-ReliableMessaging settings panel. From the WS-ReliableMessaging settings panel, select the bus name and messaging engine to use for reliable messaging bindings. Click Save, to save your changes to the master configuration.

What to do next

You can create custom bindings for your policy sets. Read about creating custom attachment bindings for policy sets.
