Preferred port mappings

Use this page to view and manage a preferred portType mapping for a web service.

This administrative console page applies only to Java API for XML-based RPC (JAX-RPC) applications.

When you have multiple ports that reference the same portType (service endpoint interface), a preferred port specifies the port to use when the Service.getPort(Class SEI) method is called with only the service endpoint interface.

To view this administrative console page, click Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise applications > application_name > Manage Modules > module instance > Web services client bindings > Edit > preferred_port_instance.
