Description:
===========
By default only one network interface listens to the port specified in the HTTP channel. How to bind all network interfaces to the configured HTTP channel port number?

Environment:
===========
TIBCO BusinessEvents 4.x/5.x
All Operating Systems

Symptoms:
=========
HTTPConnection binds to a single network interface only ("telnet &ltipaddress> &ltport>" )

Cause:
======
This is the normal behaviour for channel serverType "BUILD-IN". (localhost as the hostname binds to the  loopback address).

Resolution:
========
Change the serverType to "TomCat" in the channel configuration.

Note: Update the threading model to use  "Caller" threads  (Shared Queue not supported with serverType TomCat).
