The TCP transport implementation is in the Apache WS-Commons Transports project. The two classes that act as the transport listener and the sender are org.apache.axis2.transport.tcp.TCPServer and org.apache.axis2.transport.tcp.TCPTransportSender respectively. In order to use the transport axis2-transport-tcp.jar should be added to the Carbon classpath.
Transport Receiver Parameters
Parameter Name | Description | Requried | Possible Values | Default Value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
port | The port on which the TCP server should listen for incoming messages | No | A positive integer less than 65535 | 8000 |
hostname | The host name of the server to be displayed in WSDLs etc | No | A valid host name or an IP address |

Transport Sender Parameters
The TCP transport sender does not accept any configuration parameters as of now.
To enable the TCP transport for samples, simply open the repository/conf/axis2.xml file in a text editor and add the following transport receiver configuration and sender configuration. TCP transport module is shipped with WSO2 ESB by default.
<transportReceiver name="tcp">
<parameter name="transport.tcp.port">6060</parameter>
</transportReceiver>
<transportSender name="tcp"/>
If you wish to use the sample Axis2 client to send TCP messages, you have to uncomment the TCP transport sender configuration in the following file:
samples/axis2Client/client_repo/conf/axis2.xml
