THis bug is to further work on the issue on top of the commits cited at the bottom.


+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #754838 +++

As7.1 has changed the setup of the management port to now also use a socket-binding reference.
The current code is not able to discover that versions and fails with an exception.

Stop-gap fix is to assume a default port if no other port is given in the 

<management-interfaces> section

As7.1a2:

 <management-interfaces>
            <native-interface security-realm="ManagementRealm">
                <socket-binding native="management-native"/>
            </native-interface>
            <http-interface security-realm="ManagementRealm">
                <socket-binding http="management-http"/>
            </http-interface>
        </management-interfaces>
and
 <socket-binding name="management-http" interface="management" port="9990"/>

older versions and eap6a2 ( dr5: )

        <management-interfaces>
            <native-interface interface="management" port="9999"/>
            <http-interface interface="management" port="9990"/>
        </management-interfaces>

In addition the hostname is also not correctly determined.

check for empty port and/or host and use default values in that case.
