WAS v8.5 > Reference > SetsWeb services client bindings
The client bindings define the Web Services Description Language (WSDL) file name, preferred ports and other port information. Use this page to specify the client bindings and the port mappings for the web services in a module.
A web service can specify the relative path within the module of a compatible WSDL file containing the actual URL to be used for requests. The relative path only needs to be specified if the original WSDL file does not contain a URL or when a different URL is needed. For a service endpoint with multiple ports defined, a preferred mapping specifies the default port to use for a port type.
