wsa2sync
Specifies that the DataPower service is mediating between hosts that
support WS-Addressing and servers that employ traditional addressing.
wsa2wsa
Specifies that the DataPower service is mediating between hosts and
servers that support WS-Addressing.
Guidelines
The wsa-mode command specifies the WS-Addressing support that the DataPower
service provides. The level of support is determined by the WS-Addressing
capabilities of the associated clients and servers. Support for any particular level of
WS-Addressing does not preclude simultaneous support for traditional addressing
formats.
v
When operating in sync2wsa mode, the DataPower service, under user control,
can:
– Insert WS-Addressing headers into the traditionally addressed original client
request. The default behavior is to retain the original addressing format.
– Strip the WS-Addressing headers from any server-generated response before
forwarding the response to the original client. The default behavior is to strip
the WS-Addressing headers.
– Process synchronous or asynchronous server responses of either the
ReplyTo
(a standard response to a client request) or
FaultTo
(reporting an error
condition) variety.
A synchronous response is received over the same connection that carried the
client request to the server.
An asynchronous response is received over a different connection that carried
the client request to the server, and requires the DataPower service to maintain
state information associating the received response with an outstanding request.
v
When operating in wsa2sync mode, the DataPower service, under user control,
can:
– Insert WS-Addressing headers into the traditionally addressed server
response. The default behavior is to retain the original addressing format.
– Strip the WS-Addressing headers from any client-generated request before
forwarding the request to the target server. The default behavior is to strip the
WS-Addressing headers.
– Rewrite the contents of, or supply default values, for client-generated
ReplyTo
and
FaultTo
elements to specify the destinations of these response types.
– Rewrite the contents of the client-generated
To
element to specify where the
client request is routed.
– Process synchronous or asynchronous server responses of either the
ReplyTo
(a standard response to a client request) or
FaultToA
(reporting an error
condition) variety.
A synchronous response is received over the same connection that carried the
client request to the server.
An asynchronous response is received over a different connection that carried
the client request to the server, and requires the DataPower service to maintain
state information associating the received response with an outstanding request.
v
When operating in wsa2wsa mode, the DataPower service under user control,
can:
– Insert WS-Addressing headers into the traditionally addressed server
response. The default behavior is to retain the original addressing format.
