Transport Management

Follow the instructions bellow to access Transports.

1. Log on to the Data Services Server Management Console.

2. Click the Main menu and select List under Web Services.

3. The Deployed Services screen appears. Click on the necessary service. For example,

4. The Service Dashboard page appears. Click Transports in the Quality of Service Configuration panel.

5. The Transport Management page appears.

The Transport Management page lists the available transport listeners and senders. From here, you can add new transports and remove/configure exposed transports separately, without having to restart the server.

Transport configurations are saved in the embedded registry and are loaded from there. WSO2 Carbon also supports the traditional axis2.xml file-based transport configuration model. For instance, you can override the transport configurations in the registry by specifying different configurations in the <DSS_HOME>/conf/axis2.xml file. Transport configuration details given in the axis2.xml file gets priority over the transport configuration details saved in the registry. Any changes to axis2.xml file require a server restart to take effect.

Adding Transports

The drop-down list is populated with all enabled transports which are not added to the service. To add, simply select the transport from the drop-down list and click Add.

You can see the transport added to the Exposed Transports list.

Removing Transports

To remove an added transport from the service, click the Remove Transport icon associated with the transport you want to remove.

Click Yes to confirm.

Configuring Transports

To configure a transport, click the Configure Transport link associated with a transport. You will be taken to a page where you can specify configuration parameters for the transport listener or the sender.

Enter the parameter name and click Add.

You will be prompted to enter the parameter value.

Click Update once done. The updated settings will take effect immediately and the corresponding transport listener or sender is restarted.

If you do not want to configure parameters, you can click Cancel. You will be navigated to Transport Management page where you can:

• Enable a disabled transport.
• Disable or Configure an enabled transport

Enabling a Transport

To enable a transport listener or a sender, click the Enable link associated with the transport. You will be navigated to a page where the configuration parameters for the transport listener or sender can be specified. The required fields will be populated with default values, which you can change according to your requirements.

Click Enable once configuration is done.

Click Yes to confirm.

If any of the dependencies required to enable the transport listener or the sender are missing, the transport will not be enabled and you will be redirected to the Transport Management page. You will notice that the Enable option is still available for that particular transport listener or sender, indicating that it hasn't been enabled. Therefore it is important that you put all the required jars in the <DSS_HOME>/repository/components/dropins directory before attempting to activate a transport listener or a sender.

Disabling a Transport

To disable an already active transport listener or a sender, click the Disable link given on the Transport Management page.

Click Yes to confirm.
