Inbound Ports [Settings]
An inbound port describes the web service enablement of a service destination on a specific endpoint listener, with associated configuration.
Service integration -> Buses -> bus_name -> [Services] Inbound Services -> service_name -> [Additional Properties] Inbound Ports -> port_name .
Each inbound port is associated with an endpoint listener, and you can control which groups of users can access a particular inbound service by making the service available only through specific endpoint listeners.
We can set the levels of security to be applied to messages. The security level can be set independently for request and response messages.

These property values are preserved even if the runtime environment is stopped then restarted.
