Chapter 7 Using an XML Document to Configure the CSS Allowing the Transfer of XML Configuration Files on the CSS Allowing the Transfer of XML Configuration Files on the CSS For client applications to publish XML configuration files on the CSS, they must upload the files to the CSS over HTTP connections. By default, the CSS denies HTTP connections for the transfer of XML configuration files. You can configure the CSS to allow the transfer of these files through either an unsecure HTTP connection or a secure HTTPS SSL connection. You cannot configure access for both secure and unsecure connections. Note Because the CSS can process large configurations, the CSS processes only two concurrent XML configuration uploads over secure connections. If a third upload is attempted, it may not succeed. The CSS closes the connection and sends the following message to the client: status 503 Service Unavailable To allow the transfer of XML configuration files through: • An unsecure connection, use the global configuration no restrict xml command. For example, enter: (config)# no restrict xml The CSS listens on port 80 for an unsecure connection request. To reset the default behavior to deny the transfer of XML configuration files through an unsecure connection, use the global configuration restrict xml command. For example, enter: (config)# restrict xml OL-5647-02 Cisco Content Services Switch Administration Guide 7-5
