Disabling Java™ protocols - HTTP

To disable Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) as the means to enter API information in Sterling™ Order Management System Software, the deployment descriptor needs to be modified. The deployment descriptor, web.xml, is defined by the servlet specification from Sun Microsystems. This deployment descriptor can be used to deploy a web application on any J2EE-compliant application server. The deployment descriptors for Sterling Order Management System Software are stored in the <INSTALL_DIR>/repository/eardata/smcfs/descriptors/<App_Server>/WAR/WEB-INF directory. The deployment descriptor for the InteropHttpServlet needs to be removed from the web.xml file to disable the servlet. Remember to remove both the servlet-name and the servlet-mapping entries from this file.
