Configure a remote web server

To enable communication between the web server and WebSphere Application Server, a web server plug-in is required. The web server plug-in determines whether a request is handled by the web server or by the application server. The web server plug-in uses an XML configuration file (plugin-cfg.xml) containing settings describing how to handle and pass on requests to WAS.

In the WAS console, the web server is represented as a specific server type, and we can view or modify all of the configuration properties used in plugin-cfg.xml for the web server plug-in from the WAS console.

Verify the web server write and delete operations are allowed. These operations enable the HTTP operations POST, PUT, and DELETE, required for the toolbar.
