HTTP transport settings

To set an HTTP transport. The name of the page might be that of an SSL setting such as DefaultSSLSettings. This page is not available if we do not have an HTTP transport defined for the system.

Deprecated feature: Use HTTP transports only on a V5.1 node in a mixed cell environment. You must use HTTP transport channels instead of HTTP transports to handle the HTTP requests on all of the other nodes.depfeat

The use of IPv6 (Internet Protocol V6) and WS-AT are not supported on HTTP transports; they are only supported on HTTP transport channel chains.
