Add a new HTTP endpoint for the proxy server
An administrator can use the proxy server to create additional endpoints to listen for HTTP and HTTPS requests. The following steps will create a new transport chain:
Procedure
- Click Servers > Server Types > WebSphere proxy servers > proxy_server_name
> HTTP proxy server settings > Proxy server transports in the admin console.
- Click New to launch the Create new transport chain wizard.
- Determine a name for the transport chain.
- Choose a template based on whether the endpoint should accept HTTP (proxy template) or HTTPS (proxy-secure template) requests. The wizard prompts for the host and port for the endpoint. Creating a new endpoint for the proxy server requires a restart of the proxy server to be effective.
