Overview
Use this tab to configure a network channel for the server instance. A network channel allows you to segregate network traffic by Network Interface Card (NIC) and to listen for requests on multiple ports.

Name The name of this Network Channel.MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
NetworkAccessPointMBeanAttribute: NameDefault: "<unknown>" Protocol The protocol supported by this Network Channel.MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
NetworkAccessPointMBeanAttribute: ProtocolDefault: "t3"Valid values:
- t3"

- com"
- http"
- t3s"
- iiops"

Listen Address The IP address or DNS name associated with the Network Channel. Default value is the listen address for the server instance. Listen Port The Listen Port associated with the Network Channel. Default value is the standard listen port for the server instance. External Listen Address The external address for the current server, which will be sent to clients. This will be required for the configurations in which need to cross a firewall doing Network Address Translation. This property supersedes ExternalDNSName. A value of null indicates that this value is inherited from the server.MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
NetworkAccessPointMBeanAttribute: PublicAddressDefault: null External Listen Port The external listen port for the channel. -1 implies that this value is inherited from the internal listen port.MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
NetworkAccessPointMBeanAttribute: PublicPortDefault: -1
Advanced Attributes

Description
Value Constraints
Outbound Enabled Whether or not new server-to-server connections may consider this channel when initiating a request.MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
NetworkAccessPointMBeanAttribute: OutboundEnabledDefault: true, unless Protocal is COM, in which case default is false.Valid values:
- true
If Protocol is COM, this attribute cannot be changed from default of false.
- false
Channel Weight A weight to give this channel when creating server-to-server connections.MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
NetworkAccessPointMBeanAttribute: ChannelWeightMinimum: 1Maximum: 100Default: 50 Cluster Address This channel's cluster address. If this is not set, the public address is used and if this is not set then the cluster address from the cluster configuration is used in its place.MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
NetworkAccessPointMBeanAttribute: ClusterAddressDefault: null Accept Backlog Allowed backlog of connection requests on the listen port. -1 implies that this value is inherited from the channel.MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
NetworkAccessPointMBeanAttribute: AcceptBacklogMinimum: -1Default: -1 Http Enabled For This Protocol Whether or not this port will accept HTTP requests. HTTP is generally required by binary protocols for downloading stubs and other resources.MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
NetworkAccessPointMBeanAttribute: HttpEnabledForThisProtocolDefault: true, except when Protocol is COM, in which case default is false.Valid values:
- true
If Protocol is COM, this attribute cannot be changed from default of false.If Protocol is HTTP or HTTPS, this attribute cannot be changed from default of true.
- false
Login Timeout The login timeout for the server, in milliseconds. This value must be equal to or greater than 0. -1 implies that this value is inherited from the channel.MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
NetworkAccessPointMBeanAttribute: LoginTimeoutMillisUnits: millisecondsMinimum: -1Maximum: 100000Default: -1Dynamic: yes Complete Message Timeout The maximum number of seconds spent waiting for a complete message to be received. This attribute helps guard against denial of service attacks in which a caller indicates that they will be sending a message of a certain size which they never finish sending. -1 implies that this value is inherited from the channel.MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
NetworkAccessPointMBeanAttribute: CompleteMessageTimeoutUnits: secondsMinimum: -1Maximum: 480Default: -1Configurable: yesDynamic: yes Idle Connection Timeout The maximum number of seconds an connection is allowed to be idle before it is closed by the server. This attribute helps guard against server deadlock through too many open connections. -1 implies that this value is inherited from the default channel.MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
NetworkAccessPointMBeanAttribute: IdleConnectionTimeoutUnits: secondsMinimum: -1Default: -1Configurable: yesDynamic: yes Tunneling Enabled http-tunneled clients enabled.MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
NetworkAccessPointMBeanAttribute: TunnelingEnabledDefault: falseValid values:
- true
If Protocol is COM this attribute can not be changed from default of false.
- false
Tunneling Client Ping Interval (in seconds) at which to ping an http-tunneled client to see if its still alive. -1 implies that this value is inherited from the channel.This attributed is only has an effect if Tunneling Enabled is true.MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
NetworkAccessPointMBeanAttribute: TunnelingClientPingSecsUnits: secondsDefault: -1Dynamic: yes
Tunneling Client Timeout Duration (in seconds) after which a missing http-tunneled client is considered dead. -1 implies that this value is inherited from the channel.This value only has an effect if Tunneling Enabled is true.MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
NetworkAccessPointMBeanAttribute: TunnelingClientTimeoutSecsUnits: secondsDefault: -1Dynamic: yes Maximum Message Size Specify the maximum message size allowable in a message header. This attribute attempts to prevent a denial of service attack whereby a caller attempts to force the server to allocate more memory than is available thereby keeping the server from responding quickly to other requests.MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
