Creating a TCPIPSERVICE

As the client connects to your Web services over an HTTP transport you must define a TCPIPSERVICE to receive the inbound HTTP traffic.

Use the CEDA transaction to create a TCPIPSERVICE definition to handle inbound HTTP requests.
  1. Enter the following: CEDA DEF TCPIPSERVICE(EXMPPPORT) G(EXAMPLE). Alternatively, you can copy the TCPIPSERVICE definition from CICS® supplied group DFH$EXWS.
  2. Enter the following additional attributes:
    • URM(NONE)
    • PORTNUMBER(port) where port is an unused port number in your CICS system.
    • PROTOCOL(HTTP)
    • TRANSACTION(CWXN)
  3. Use the default values for all other attributes.
