admin Web Application
The admin web application provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for administering
container objects and resource modifications using JMX MBeans. In addition, an
MBean invocation can also be done using the manager web application by specifying
the target object (or resource name), the invoking method, and the associated
argument list in the query string of the URI.
The admin web application uses the Apache Struts framework to implement the
administration GUI-based interface. The Struts framework helps you design
applications based on the Model-View-Controller (MVC) design paradigm. The admin
web application uses JSP pages for the View component. These JSP pages create
HTML forms in which the operator can specify object attributes and initiate various
object operations.

Overview and Architecture
The NSJSP admin operations do not behave the same way as the Apache Tomcat
implementation. The Apache Tomcat implementation is a standalone application.
