Ability to select the interface(s) that the axis2_http_server listens at for
http requests
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: AXIS2-4423
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-4423
Project: Axis 2.0 (Axis2)
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: transports
Reporter: Patrick Cosmo
When a server has multiple network interface cards (and therefore multiple IP
addresses), it is often important to be able to configure which interface a
service listens at.
For example, consider a server that has an interface with a public IP address
and a second interface with a private IP address. If the service is internal,
you may wish it to be accessible from the private IP address but not the public
IP address.
In my particular case, I'm using Axis2/C to build a service that supports a
WSDL/SOAP API. More specifically, I'm using the same code used to build the
Axis2/C "axis2_http_server.exe", but I'm embedding this code in my own
application. For all intents and purposes this is just the
"axis2_http_server.exe" server being run from inside another application.
So, even though the "axis2_http_server" may not support a command line switch
that allows the interface to be configured, even if there was a programmatic
way to configure this that would meet my requirements, and presumably that of
others?
