Overview

NSJSP is configured to meet specific user requirements by modifying the configuration

files installed with NSJSP 6.1. This section provides an overview of the files used to

configure NSJSP 6.1.

The files used to configure NSJSP are broadly classified into the following categories:



Configuration files that describe the NSJSP server classes and how they are used

by the iTP Secure WebServer. Table 3-2

provides a brief description of these files.

Admin Server Class Refers to one of the server classes configured with an installation

of NSJSP. Each installation of NSJSP results in 2 server classes.

One server class will host web applications and process requests

for user applications and the other contains the Admin application

and the old Manager Web Application. The server class that is

used by the Admin application is referred to as the Admin Server

Class. With NSJSP 6.1, the name of the Servlet Server Class is

specified during installation and the Admin server class name is

automatically created by appending -ADM to the name of the

servlet server class specified during installation.

Session object Also called an HTTP Session Object, it is a Java object. It is used

to store state between client interactions with web application

servlets executing in NSJSP.

Session A session, also called an HTTP session, provides the means to

associate an HTTP Client and an HTTP Server. This association

or session, persists over multiple connections and/or requests

during a given time period. Sessions are used to maintain the

state and identity a user across multiple requests and

connections. An example of session state would be the contents

of a shopping cart, which is stored in a session object.

<iTP Secure

WebServer Home>

installed.

<NSJSP_HOME> Refers to the directory where NSJSP has been installed.
