General sample bindings for JAX-WS applications


Use sample bindings with the admin console for testing purposes. The configurations that you specify are reflected on the cell or server level.

WAS V7.0 includes provider and client sample bindings for testing purposes. In the bindings, WAS provides sample values for supporting tokens for different token types, such as the X.509 token, the username token, the LTPA token, and the Kerberos token. The bindings also include sample values for message protection information for token types such as X.509 and secure conversation. Both provider and client sample bindings can be applied to the applications attached with a system policy set, or application policy set, from the default local repository.

This information describes the general sample bindings for the JAX-WS model. We can develop Web services using the JAX-RPC programming model, or for WAS V7.0, using the JAX-WS model. Sample general bindings may differ depending on which model you use.

The following sections, describing various general sample bindings, are provided:

Best practice: IBM WAS supports the JAX-WS model and the JAX-RPC model. JAX-WS is the next generation Web services model extending the foundation provided by the JAX-RPC model. Using the strategic JAX-WS model, development of Web services and clients is simplified through support of a standards-based annotations model. Although the JAX-RPC model and applications are still supported, take advantage of the easy-to-implement JAX-WS model to develop new Web services applications and clients. bprac

Do not use these provider and client sample bindings in their default state in a production environment. You must modify the bindings to meet the security needs before using them in a production environment by making a copy of the bindings and then modifying the copy. For example, change the key and keystore settings to ensure security, and modify the binding settings to match the environment.

One set of general default bindings is shared by the applications to make application deployment easier. We can specify default bindings for the service provider or client that are used at the global security (cell) level, for a security domain, or for a particular server. The default bindings are used in the absence of an overriding binding specified at a lower scope. The order of precedence from lowest to highest that the appserver uses to determine which default bindings to use is as follows:

  1. Server level default
  2. Security domain level default
  3. Global security (cell) default

 

General client sample bindings

 

Client sample bindings V2

Two new general sample bindings, Client sample V2, and Provider sample V2, have been added to WAS V7.0.0.1. While many of the configurations are the same as previous versions of the client sample and provider sample bindings, there are several additional, new sample configurations. To use these new bindings, create a new profile after installing WAS ND.

See, read the topic Set Kerberos policy sets and V2 general sample bindings.

 

General provider sample bindings

 

Provider sample bindings V2

Two new general sample bindings, Client sample V2, and Provider sample V2, have been added to WAS V7.0.0.1. While many of the configurations are the same as previous versions of the client sample and provider sample bindings, there are several additional, new sample configurations. To use these new bindings, create a new profile after installing WAS ND.
