Chapter 2 Configuring User Profiles and CSS Parameters

Configuring Content API

Controlling Access to the CSS HTTP Server

To control access to the HTTP server running on the CSS, use the restrict xml and no restrict xml commands. Clients can send XML documents to this server to configure the CSS. The options for this global configuration mode command are:

no restrict xml - Allow client access to the HTTP server on the CSS.

restrict xml - Deny client access to the HTTP server on the CSS.

Note The web-mgmt state enable command (for CSS software version 3.x) performs the same function as the (config) no restrict xml command (for CSS software version 4.x) and the web-mgmt state disable command performs the same function as the (config) restrict xml command. When you use the web-mgmt state enable command, it does not appear in the configuration file. Instead, the (config) no restrict xml command appears in the configuration file.

Parsing the XML Code

After you complete the XML file, parse the code to ensure that it is syntactically correct. The easiest way to parse XML code is to open the XML file directly from Microsoft® Internet Explorer. Syntax errors are flagged automatically when the file is loaded. If an error occurs, review your XML code and correct all syntax errors.

Publishing the XML Code to the CSS

The completed XML file is remotely published (uploaded) to the HTTP server in the CSS from the external network management workstation by using a HTTP PUT method. The HTTP PUT method uses the IP address of the CSS as the destination URL where you want to publish the XML file.

Note When XML is enabled, the CSS listens for XML connections on port 80.
