Creating and Managing Oracle Virtual Directory Listeners 11-7 Table 11–2 HTTP Listener Configuration Parameters Type Parameter Description Basic Listener Name Name of the Listener. Use only ASCII characters in the value for the Listener Name parameter, as non-ASCII characters are not supported. Listener Host Specify the IP address the Listener should use to listen for connections from clients. By default, Oracle Virtual Directory listens on all IP addresses if no value or 0.0.0.0 is specified for this parameter. Note: Do not use a a loopback IP address, including 127.0.0.1, :0:0:1, localhost, and so on, for the Listener Host setting. If you set this parameter to an IP address or host, the Listener uses that IP address or host to listen for connections from clients, regardless of whether the IP address or host is virtual or real. Listener Port The port number on which the Listener provides service. Only one Listener per server can be active on a port at any given time. Threads The number of active worker threads the Listener uses to concurrently process incoming requests. The Listener automatically increases the number of threads if you enter an insufficient amount. This initial setting serves only to indicate to Oracle Virtual Directory the expected amount of simultaneous clients so that it can preallocate resources. The default setting is 10, which should be sufficient for testing purposes. For production environments, Oracle recommends to increase this setting to 50. Listener Enabled Enables selected and disables not selected the Listener for service. DSML V2 Service Realm Name Name of the realm used by Oracle Virtual Directory to protect the DSMLv2 service when the DSMLv2 service is security enabled. This realm name would appear in a HTTP browser challenge to the user. Web Gateway Service Section Allow Anonymous Access Enables and disables anonymous access to the Web Gateway. Search Root The root distinguished name namespace of the directory tree where the Web Gateway starts its sub-tree search for user identity names UIDs provided after a user authentication challenge. Search Attributes The attribute the Web Gateway attempts to match when searching for a UID. User Object Classes The objectclasses the Web Gateway uses when searching for users to authenticate. Result Cache Life seconds Maximum time that Oracle Virtual Directory waits before re-querying a user credential stored in the directory source. 11-8 Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrators Guide for Oracle Virtual Directory

Log in to Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control and navigate to the Oracle Virtual Directory target where the Listener you want to edit resides.

2. Select Administration and then Listeners from the Oracle Virtual Directory menu.

The Listeners screen appears displaying the exiting Listeners. 3. Select the Listener you want to edit by clicking on it.

4. Click the Edit button. The Edit Listener screen appears displaying the Listener’s

Certificate Attributes Indicates which attributes contain binary PKI certificate information. The default value is usercertificate. PhotoImage Attributes Indicates which attributes contain graphical images. The default value is jpegphoto. Image Display Height The height the Web Gateway scales photos to. The default value is 100. Image Display Width The width the Web Gateway scales photos to. The default value is 100. Note: You must explicitly stop and start Oracle Virtual Directory—not Restart—to load the Listener configuration to the Oracle Virtual Directory server. Table 11–2 Cont.
