Configuration

General

Attribute
Description
Range of Values
Default Value

Name

This attribute returns the name of the WLEC connection pool. The name must be unique for each WLEC connection pool.

The name can be up to 256 alphanumeric characters, but may not contain commas or spaces.

Null

Primary Addresses

This attribute returns the list of addresses for IIOP Listener/Handlers that can be used to establish a connection between the WLEC connection pool and the WLE domain. The format of each address is //hostname:port.

The addresses must match the ISL addresses defined in the UBBCONFIG file. Multiple addresses are seperated by semicolons. For example: //main1.com:1024; //main2.com:1044.

To configure the WLEC connection pool to use the SSL protocol, use the corbalocs prefix with the address of the IIOP Listener/Handler. For example: corbalocs://hostname:port.

String

Null

Failover Addresses

This attribute returns the list of addresses for IIOP Listener/Handlers that are used if connections cannot be established with the addresses defined in the Primary Addresses field. Multiple addresses are separated by semicolons.

String

Null

WLEC Domain

This attribute returns the name of the WLEC domain to which the pool is connected. You can have only one WLEC connection pool per WLE domain. The domain name must match the domainid parameter in the RESOURCES section of the UBBCONFIG file for the WLE domain.

String

Null

Minimum Pool Size

This attribute returns the number of IIOP connections to be added to the WLEC connection pool when WebLogic Server starts.

Integer

1

Maximum Pool Size

This attribute returns the maximum number of IIOP connections that can be made from the WLEC connection pool.

Integer

1

Security

Attribute
Description
Range of Values
Default Value

User Name

This attribute returns the name of a qualified user. This field is required only when the security level in the WLE domain is USER_AUTH, ACL or MANDATORY_ACL.

Valid user name as assigned by the administrator.

Null

User Password

This attribute returns the password of the qualified user specified in the User Name field. This field is required only when you define the User Name field.

Valid user password as assigned by the administrator.

Null

User Role

This attribute sets the user role for this connection pool. This field is required when the security level in the WLE domain is APP_PW, USER_AUTH, ACL, or MANDATORY_ACL.

Valid user role as defined by the administrator or the developer.

Null

Application Password

This attribute returns the password for the application. This field is required when the security level in the WLE domain is APP_PW, USER_AUTH, ACL, or MANDATORY_ACL.

String

Null

Minimum Encryption Level

This attribute sets the minimum SSL encryption level used between the WLE domain and WebLogic Server. Zero (0) indicates that the data is signed but not sealed. 40, 56, and 128 specify the length, in bits, of the encryption key. If this minimum level of encryption is not met, the SSL connection between WLE and WebLogic Server fails.

The possible values are 0, 40, 56, and 128.

40

Maximum Encryption Level

This attribute sets the maximum SSL encryption level used between the WLE domain and WebLogic Server. Zero (0) indicates that the data is signed but not sealed. 40, 56, and 128 specify the length, in bits, of the encryption key. If this minimum level of encryption is not met, the SSL connection between WLE and WebLogic Server fails.

The possible values are 0, 40, 56, and 128.

The default is the maximum level allowed by the Encryption Package kit license.

Enable Certificate Authentication

This attribute enables the use of certificate authentication.

When you use certificate authentication, WLEC uses the values for the User Name and Application Password fields to create a certificate for WLEC.

If you do not use certificate authentication, WLEC uses password authentication or no authentication, depending on the security level of the WLE domain. If password authentication is required, WLEC uses the values for the User Name and User Password fields to authenticate.
