Configuring bindings for the HTTP transport policy

To use the HTTP transport policy with your Web service clients, first configure bindings for the policy.

With HTTP, your Web services and clients can communicate via messages in the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP). SOAP is used by Web services that support two specifications: Web Services for Java™ 2 Platform Enterprise Edition (J2EE), and Java API for XML-based Remote Procedure Call (JAX-RPC). Most Web services use HTTP transport.

To configure a binding for the HTTP transport policy:

1. In the Client Side Policy Set Attachment wizard, select the WSHttpTransport policy type in the

   Bindings Configuration table; then click

   Configure.

2. On the "Outbound service requests" tab:

   1. Under

      Proxy for outbound service requests, specify the host name and port number of the proxy that your Web service client will use, as well as your user name and password for the proxy.

   2. Under

      Basic authentication for outbound service requests, specify your user name and password for basic authentication.

3. On the "Asynchronous service responses" tab:

   1. Under

      Proxy for asynchronous service responses, specify the host name and port number of the proxy that your Web service client will use, as well as your user name and password for the proxy.

   2. Under

      Basic authentication for asynchronous service responses, specify your user name and password for basic authentication.

4. Click OK.
