The Service Binding Manager co-ordinates which ports the Enterprise Web Platform instance listens on when it starts up. Which port set is used by the Service Binding Manager can be configured using the Admin Console. The Enterprise Web Platform ships with four port sets predefined:
- ports-default: The standard ports, for instance JBoss Web listens for HTTP requests on 8080.
- ports-01: The standard ports incremented by 100. For example, HTTP is on 8180
- ports-02: The standard ports incremented by 200. For example, HTTP is on 8280
- ports-03: The standard ports incremented by 300. For example, HTTP is on 8380
Additional port sets can also be created. All port sets can be deleted, configured and have their service bindings displayed using the Admin Console.
The Service Binding Manager can be configured to use a different Service Binding Set (different set of ports) on the Enterprise Web Platform.
