To create a connection to an IBM Websphere queue manager, you specify the queue manager name in the Message Queue Connection dialog, and provide a channel definition that includes:
- the channel name,
- the transport type, and
- the connection name, with an optional port number.
Port number
Connect assumes a default port number of 1414 for the port where the server’s listener is expecting client communication. You can change the port number by specifying it in parentheses following the connection name. For example, 192.168.2.100(1415) or server-machine.com(1415).
The channel definition may be specified by either:
Defining the MQSERVER environment variable, or
Using a Connect WebSphere queue manager configuration file.
