Use this task to configure context properties for a mediation.
This task assumes that you have defined a mediation in the administrative
console. For more information, see
Defining a mediation.
The mediation uses the mediation context, in conjunction with the
message header information, to process messages. By configuring the mediation
context, you are ensuring that messages are processed correctly.
Note: Context
properties on a destination take precedence over context properties on a mediation.
For example, if a property with the same name is configured for a destination
and a mediation, the property on the destination takes precedence.

- Display the context information for a selected mediation:
- In the content pane, click
the name of the service integration bus
