HTTP transport settings
Use this page to view and configure an HTTP transport. The name of the page might be that of an SSL setting such as DefaultSSLSettings. This page is not available if you do not have an HTTP transport defined for your system.
You can use HTTP transports only on a V5.1 node in a mixed WAS environment. You must use HTTP transport channels instead of HTTP transports to handle your HTTP requests on all of your other nodes.
The use of IPv6 (Internet Protocol V6) and WS-AT (Web Services Atomic Transactions) are not supported on HTTP transports; they are only supported on HTTP transport channel chains.
