Using ColdFusion Web Services

ColdFusion can now expose many of its features as document or literal style SOAP web services. You can leverage
ColdFusion functionality using web services from other languages like PHP, .NET, or Ruby.You can access the features
of the following tags (and their child tags) as SOAP services:
• cfchart
• cfdocument
• cfimage
• cfmail
• cfpop
Description
Enter the target host to which incoming connections are forwarded.
For example, if you are monitoring a service running on a local server, the hostname is localhost.
Enter the port number on the target machine to which TCPMonitor connects. For example, if you are
monitoring a service running on your local ColdFusion server in the server configuration, the default
port number is 8500.
Select this check box only to configure proxy support for TCPMonitor.
