Adaptors

An adaptor connects the framework to external applications. It provides a view through a specific protocol of the m-beans instantiated and registered with the framework. An adaptor enables an external application to:

• Get or set properties of existing m-bean instances

• Invoke methods on existing m-bean instances

• Instantiate an m-bean and register the new m-bean instance

The Solaris Bandwidth Manager policy agent includes an HTTP adaptor.
