Domains and Traffic Routing

The Domains and Traffic Routing page allows you to edit an existing endpoint definition. You can modify the name, Public endpoint address, and Traffic Manager endpoint address on this page. Note that if enhanced security is enabled while creating the endpoint, the respective field is not displayed on this page. Hence, once enabled, the enhanced security for that endpoint cannot be disabled.

The following table describes the fields on the API Endpoint Settings: <Endpoint Name> page.
Field Description

Your Public Endpoint Domain

Public domain name that developer application or widget uses to make an API call. It can be defined in the Customize your Public Endpoint Address field.

Your Public Traffic Manager Domain

The Traffic Manager domain name can be edited by clicking the Edit link in the top ribbon on the page. However, you must consult TIBCO Mashery before editing the TIBCO Mashery internal domain name.



Your Endpoint Domain

The URI path of the host server that the Traffic Manager uses to send an API call. The Traffic Manager performs call logging, and applies the configured rules before sending an API call.
