Creating mutual junctions
About this task
Mutual junctions provide the ability to send junction requests over HTTP or HTTPS, governed by the communication protocol over which the request was received.
If a request comes in to a mutual junction over HTTP, then the request goes to the junctioned server via HTTP. If the request comes in over HTTPS then it goes to the junctioned server over HTTPS.
Procedure
To create a mutual junction and add an initial server,
use the create command with the –t
mutual option. Use the -p option
for a HTTP port and the -P option for a HTTPS
port. Similarly, use the -V option to specify
the virtual host name for HTTP requests, and the -V option
to specify the virtual host name for HTTPS requests. For example (entered
as one line):
pdadmin> server task instance_name-webseald-host-name create -t mutual
-h host_name [-p HTTP_port] [-P HTTPS_port] [-v HTTP_virtual_host_name]
[-V HTTPS_virtual_host_name]jct_pointThe default HTTP port value for a mutual junction (if not specified) is 80.
The default HTTPS port value for a mutual junction (if not specified) is 443.
