<h3><a name="appsvrtrans"></a>Administer HTTP transports for the Web container with the administrative console</h3>
|
||
|
|
|

|
|
<p>Components of WebSphere Application Server - Express uses HTTP transports to communicate with each other. Your application also uses HTTP transports to receive and reply to client requests.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>Before you decide which type of transport to use, consider the following limitations of the internal HTTP transports:</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>Internal transports do not support Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Existing Common Gateway Interface (CGI) support must be implemented as servlets. That is, you must convert any existing CGI programs to servlets.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Internal transports do not support session affinity for workload balancing.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Because static content can not be served directly by an external HTTP server, overall application server performance can be adversely affected.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Web servers generally are more susceptible to security exposures than application servers are. If a production environment includes an external Web server and an application server running on two separate machines, many of the Web server's security exposures can be limited to the machine where the Web server runs. However, if you use the internal HTTP transport, the internal HTTP transport always runs on the same machine as the application server. As a result, a security exposure in the Web server can expose both the Web server's and application server's environments.</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>You can use the administrative console and wsadmin to configure HTTP transports for your application server.</p>
