An outbound service is a web service that is hosted externally, and is made available through a service integration bus. To configure an externally-hosted service for a bus, you first associate it with a service destination, then you configure one or more port destinations (one for each type of binding, for example SOAP over HTTP or SOAP over JMS) through which service requests and responses are passed to the external service.
The Configuration tab shows configuration properties for this object. These property values are preserved even if the runtime environment is stopped then restarted. See the information center task descriptions for information about how to apply configuration changes to the runtime environment.
