Http Listener

Defines an HTTP listen socket. The connection-pool subelement of the parent http-service element also configures some listen socket settings.

When you first install the Enterprise Server, three http-listener elements exist by default, with id values of admin-listener, http-listener1, and http-listener2. The http-listener2, which is set up with SSL, is disabled by default.

Creating an http listener:

*  0.0.0.0 Means the listener listens on all addresses.

Through asadmin:

asadmin> create-http-listener  --listeneraddress  0.0.0.0  --listenerport   8001 –default-virtual-server  server   SampleListener--port  4848

Through Admin Console:

Step1:
    Click on the server-config.

    Click on the HTTP Service and click Http Listeners.

    Click New to create a new Http Listeners.

Step2:
     Enter SampleListener for Listener name.

     Enter 9000 as port number.

     Click Ok to create the HTTP Listener.
