JMS STEP 1: CREATE FOREIGN SERVER IN A WEBLOGIC SERVER

Introduction and Definitions

A Foreign Server represents a JNDI provider that is outside WebLogic server. It contains information that allows a local WebLogic Server instance to reach a remote JNDI provider, thereby allowing for a number of foreign connection factory and destination objects to be defined on one JNDI directory.
