Getting Started with the Java Dynamic Management Kit 4.1

HTTP/SSL Connector

The HTTP/SSL connector enables Java managers to access a Java Dynamic Management Kit agent using HTTP over SSL (Secure Sockets Layer). It also allows these management applications to access an agent across proxy servers. By default, the HTTP/SSL adaptor listens for incoming requests on port 8084. The HTTP/SSL connector provides login/password authentication based on 'CRAM-MD5' (Challenge-Response Authentication Mechanism using MD5). The HTTP/SSL connector server requires client authentication by default.
