Preparing to Use the EAI HTTP Transport for Inbound Integration

To use the EAI HTTP Transport for inbound integration, you must perform certain tasks that might not be required when using the EAI HTTP Transport for outbound integration:

1. Install and configure the Siebel Web Server, Siebel Gateway Name Server, and Siebel Server.
2. Start the Siebel Web Server, Siebel Gateway Name Server, and Siebel Server.
3. Start the Siebel Web Server Extension (SWSE) to be able to use the EAI HTTP Transport.
4. Configure SWSE to run the EAI HTTP Transport for inbound integration. See Specifying HTTP Parameters for Inbound Integration.
5. Set certain configuration parameters for whatever Siebel Server you are using.

   The server component you are running must be a Siebel Application Object Manager component.

NOTE:  You can type http://Web_Server_Name/ObjectManager_lang/start.swe in a Web browser on any computer that has connectivity to the Web server to check the connectivity between the computer issuing the URL (for the EAI HTTP Transport) and SWSE. This URL brings up the login page of the Siebel application corresponding to ObjectManager_lang, confirming the connectivity between SWSE and the URL-issuing computers.
