Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
In releases of JBoss EAP prior to 6.3 socket-binding could not be used to define the redirect-port. That ability has been added in this release of the product and users can now use the new attribute redirect-binding of the connector element to define the redirect port instead of using the redirect-port attribute. This new attribute takes a socket binding name as value.

Description Coty Sutherland 2012-08-09 15:18:36 UTC 
Help Desk Ticket Reference: https://c.na7.visual.force.com/apex/Case_View?id=500A000000Asegn
project_key: JBPAPP6

Support configuring a connector on the http socket and then redirect to the https socket without having to specify the actual port number outside of the socket-binding-group.

The referenced forum thread has an example that uses "redirect-port" for this, but a new attribute would be needed, since changing the meaning of "redirect-port" would be incompatible.

Linked is the bug logged for AS7, this one is to track this issue being reported by a customer in EAP 6.

Comment 5 Osamu Nagano 2013-11-08 06:02:07 UTC 
Property substitution like 'redirect-port="${jb.redirect.port:8180}"' can be a workaround but of course unifying in socket-binding is smarter.

Comment 9 Radim Hatlapatka 2014-04-18 13:56:22 UTC 
Verified with EAP 6.3.0.ER1.

I have verified that using redirect-binding attribute of the connector, I am able to define the redirection using socket binding and that redirect-port can still be used for directly defining redirect port using a port number.

This functionality needs to be documented, I have created BZ#1089361 for it.
