Web Services Management (WS-M) payload capture is supported by IDG for the following services:

  1. Web Service Proxy starting firmware version 6.1.x .
  2. Multi-Protocol Gateway starting firmware version 7.5.2 and DPOD version 1.0.2 for payload formats XML and JSON.


In order for the IDG to capture payload via WS-M the following IDG configuration is needed:

  1. Web Service Proxy – Can be fully configured via DPOD since there is no need to change service configuration.
  2. Multi-Protocol Gateway – The following configuration needs to be done in the service configuration:
  • Enable the WS-M agent configuration in the Multi-Protocol Gateway service
    • Enter the service -> advanced tab -> turn “Monitor via Web Services Management Agent” to “on”.
    • Choose “All” in the “Message capture via Web Services Management Agent” filed.

  • Enable XML / JSON parsing
    The WS-M agent capture only parsed XML and JSON formats. In order for the service to parse the payload the following service configuration are needed.
    • Option one - Change the “Request Type” and the “Response Type” to XML, JSON or SOAP.
      Note – If only one of the service direction (request or response) is configured with the supported payload formats then only payload from that direction will be captured.

    • Option two – If you must configure the request and response type as “non-xml” you can add “transform” action to the processing policy that will cause payload parse.
      • In every processing rule add “Transform with processing control file” action.
      • Choose the input=INPUT, output=NULL, “Input language”=XML or JSON according to the service design.
      • Notice – Due to IDG limitation the client request may not be captured.
