EJB Server supports the following protocols:
Internet Inter-ORB Protocol (IIOP) IIOP is the standard protocol for communication between CORBA ORBs over TCP/IP networks. The EJB client model uses IIOP. IIOP connections can also be tunnelled inside of HTTP to allow connections through firewalls that do not allow passage of IIOP traffic, as discussed in “HTTP tunneling support”.
Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) HTTP is used by Web browsers for file downloads and uploads. EJB Server provides HTTP support to allow you to deploy HTML pages and Java applets on the EJB Server itself.
To enable support for IIOP, you must define a listener in the Adaptive Server plug-in. The listener configuration specifies a server address (host name and port number) as well as the network protocol and security settings to be used by clients that connect to that listener.
To enable support for HTTP, you must use the standard configuration and port number.
