Editing SIP Container Session Manager Properties
To view the sub-elements of the SIP container session manager properties, use the following
command: list server.sip-container.session-config.session-manager.*
The two sub-elements are store-properties, manager-properties.
To view the attributes of store-properties, use the following command: get
server.sip-container.session-config.session-manager.store-properties.*
To view the attributes of manager-properties, use the following command: get
server.sip-container.session-config.session-manager.manager-properties.*
To set the attributes of the SIP container session manager properties, use the get and set
commands:
get
server.sip-container.session-manager.manager-properties.reap-interval-in-seconds
set

The Web Container

The Web Container is a J2EE container that hosts web applications. The web container extends
the web server functionality by providing developers the environment to run servlets and
JavaServer Pages (JSP files).

The EJB Container

Enterprise beans (EJB components) are Java programming language server components that
contain business logic. The EJB container provides local and remote access to enterprise beans.
There are three types of enterprise beans: session beans, entity beans, and message-driven
beans. Session beans represent transient objects and processes and typically are used by a single
client. Entity beans represent persistent data, typically maintained in a database.
Message-driven beans are used to pass messages asynchronously to application modules and
services.
The container is responsible for creating the enterprise bean, binding the enterprise bean to the
naming service so other application components can access the enterprise bean, ensuring only
authorized clients have access to the enterprise bean's methods, saving the bean's state to
persistent storage, caching the state of the bean, and activating or passivating the bean when
necessary.
