Securing Java protocols

Protocols are specified in the yifclient.properties file as LOCAL.

About this task

To specify a different protocol, use the <INSTALL_DIR>/properties/customer_overrides.properties file to override the yif.apifactory.protocol=<protocol_type> property. Other valid values for <protocol_type> are HTTP, HTTPS, and EJB.

Note: If you use an EJB protocol, you must also add the following property entries to the <INSTALL_DIR>/properties/customer_overrides.properties file based on your application server:

For WebLogic:


yif.java.naming.factory.initial=weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory
yif.java.naming.provider.url=t3://<ipaddress>:<port>

For WebSphere®:


yif.java.naming.factory.initial=com.ibm.websphere.naming.WsnInitialContextFactory
yif.java.naming.provider.url=iiop://<ipAddress>:<port>
