Overview

JBoss Remoting provides the transport of the JSR-160 Java Management Extensions (JMX) Remote API compliant implementation of a JMXConnector that can be used by standard monitoring applications to access the JMX bus.

In order to expose the JMX bus of a server node in domain mode, the JMX subsystem instance on the nodes sharing the same profile must be configured to expose the JMX interface on the connector defined by the Remoting subsystem.

The configuration change that enables this behavior must be applied in domain.xml, as follows:

<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:jmx:1.3">
    ...
    <remoting-connector use-management-endpoint="false"/>
</subsystem>

The Remoting subsystem binds by default to port 4447 and authenticates against the ApplicationRealm security realm. For more details on remoting security see Remoting Concepts - Security. For details on how to add users to the ApplicationRealm, see Adding a User to the Application Realm.
