HTTP Max Message Size Specify the maximum HTTP 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. This setting only applies to connections that are initiated using one of the default ports (ServerMBean setListenPort and setAdministrationPort or SSLMBean setListenPort). Connections on additional ports are tuned via the NetworkChannelMBean.MBean: weblogic.management.

HTTP Message Timeout Specify the maximum number of seconds spent waiting for a complete HTTP 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. This setting only applies to connections that are initiated using one of the default ports (ServerMBean setListenPort and setAdministrationPort or SSLMBean setListenPort). Connections on additional ports are tuned via the NetworkChannelMBean.MBean: weblogic.management.
