Entry point attributes
Service Mapping comes with a wide range of preconfigured entry point types that cover many commonly used applications. Check attribute definitions to correctly add entry points to your application services.
An entry point is a point where clients access a service instance. Entry points are stored as records in the Endpoint [cmdb_ci_endpoint] tables.
There are some general attributes shared by almost all entry point types as described in the following table:
| Attribute | Description |
|---|---|
| Host/Hostname/Host Name | The value of the target server on which the service is running. This value can contain a real host name, alias, IP, or VIP.Important: Do not use a localhost or loopback address (127.0.0.1) for discovery and mapping. |
| Port | The port number of the service that you want to discover. |
| Name | The name of the service that you want to discover. |
| URL | The URL of the service that you want to discover in the following format: http\(s\)://\(address\):\(port\). If you do not provide the port, the system uses the default port 443. |
| Network location | The location of the applicable subnetwork.Note: This field is optional and visible only if Network location is enabled. |
To configure entry points for subnetworks, see Fine-tune Service Mapping with MID affinity and IP reuse.
There are some attributes which you configure differently depending on what entry point they relate to, as described in the following table:
