Web container transport channel custom properties
Use this page to set custom properties for a Web container transport.
Unless you are not migrating from an previous version of WebSphere Application Server, use Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) transport channels instead of HTTP transports to handle your HTTP requests.
If you are using Web container transports, you can set the following custom properties on the Web container Custom Properties panel on the administrative console. When set on the Web container Custom Properties page, all transports inherit the properties. Setting the same properties on a transport overrides like settings defined for a Web container.
To specify custom properties for a specific transport on the HTTP Transport:
- In the console click Servers > Application Servers > server > Web Container settings > Web Container.
- Select a host.
- Under Additional Properties select Custom Properties.
- On the Custom Properties page, click New.
- On the settings page, enter the property to configure in the Name field and the value to set it to in the Value field.
- Click Apply or OK.
- Click Save on the console task bar to save the configuration changes.
- Restart the server.
Following is a list of custom properties provided with the Application Server. These properties are not shown on the settings page for a Web container transport.
