2.1. Overview

JEUS can be specified to enable JMX client access to MBeans.

To configure the operations of a JMX Manager, the server to which the JMX Manager is connected needs to be selected. Select the server from the WebAdmin main page. Or, click the [Servers] menu from the JEUS node tree on the left section of the WebAdmin screen, and then select the server from the Servers List page.

Configuring JMX Manager Basic Information

  • Use Rmi Connector

    Option to use an RMI Connector. If enabled, then the RMI Connector server instance is created when the server is started.

    The URL for connecting to the RMI Connector server is in the format "service:jmx:rmi://SERVER_ADDRESS:SERVER_BASE_PORT/jndi/SERVER_NAME".

  • Use HTML Adaptor and HTML Adaptor Port

    The HTML adapter is JMX's protocol adapter that supports HTML.

    The HTML adapter port is used to access the adapter through a web browser. If set to -1, the JMX Manager does not use the HTML protocol. Make sure not to use a port that is used by other services.

    To verify that the HTML adapter has been configured successfully, run the web browser and then access the server using the IP address of the server and the specified port number.

    The following is the screen that shows that the HTML adapter is running successfully.

  • MLet URL

    Sets the MLet URL to register with the MBean server. For the specified MLet URL to be applied, the server needs to be restarted.

2.3. SNMP Adaptor

SNMP adapter is an SNMP protocol adapter provided by JMX. To activate the configurations of SNMP adapter, check the checkbox next to 'Snmp Adapter'.
