Outbound Ports [Settings]
An outbound port represents a single port for a WSDL-defined service provider. It provides the configuration of invocation of the web service.
Service integration -> Buses -> bus_name -> [Services] Outbound Services -> service_name -> Outbound Ports -> port_name .
Requests and responses to an outbound service can be sent across any binding (for example SOAP over HTTP or SOAP over JMS) that is available to both the service integration bus and the external web service. Each available binding is represented by a port.
We can set the levels of security to be applied to messages. The security level can be set independently for request and response messages.
Because the service is hosted externally, you might also have to enable proxy server authentication to get permission to access the Internet.

Required Yes Data type Custom
Description
An optional description of the port.
Required No Data type Text area
Port destination name
The name of the port destination for this port.
Required Yes Data type Custom
Port destination point
The application server or cluster for the port destination.
Required Yes Data type Custom
Binding namespace
The namespace of the binding for this point.
Required No Data type String
Endpoint address
The endpoint address for this port.
Required No Data type String
JAX-RPC handler list
This defines which list of JAX-RPC handlers is to be invoked for this port.
You use JAX-RPC handlers to monitor activity at the port, and take appropriate action (for example logging, or re-routing) depending upon the sender and content of each message that passes through the port. If the external web service requires HTTP basic authentication, you can use a JAX-RPC handler list to provide an HTTP basic authentication header.
You configure the set of JAX-RPC handler lists by using the admin console option Service integration -> Web services -> JAX-RPC Handler Lists .
Required No Data type drop-down list
Security request binding
The security binding to be used with requests sent by this port.
You configure the security bindings in this list by using the admin console option Service integration -> Web services -> WS-Security bindings .
Required No Data type drop-down list
Security response binding
The security binding to be used for responses received by this port.
You configure the security bindings in this list by using the admin console option Service integration -> Web services -> WS-Security bindings .
Required No Data type drop-down list
Security configuration
Details of how security is applied to requests and responses.
You define the security configurations in this list by using the admin console option Service integration -> Web services -> WS-Security configurations .
Required No Data type drop-down list
Authenticating proxy host name
The host name of the authenticating proxy used for invoking requests for this port.
The service integration technologies require access to the Internet for invoking outbound web services and for retrieval of service provider WSDL files. If you use a proxy server in support of Internet routing, and if your proxy server is configured to require authentication before it grants access to the Internet, then also complete, for this outbound port, the steps described in the information center for enabling proxy server authentication.
Required No Data type String
Authenticating proxy port number
The port number of the authenticating proxy.
Required No Data type String
Authenticating proxy Authorization Alias
The name of the authorization alias that contains the user name and password to use with the authenticating proxy.
Required No Data type String
