The XML Management Interface is the third way to configure and administer the WebSphere
DataPower SOA Appliance, besides the WebGUI and the CLI.

The DataPower device can be completely configured and managed through the XML
Management Interface. If enabled, this interface allows administrators to send status and configuration requests to the DataPower appliance through a standard SOAP interface, using SOAP messages.

This interface requires the HTTPS protocol for all communication. By default, the interface
acts as an SSL server, using the default system keys coming with the device. These keys are
the same keys that are used for the WebGUI and SSH interface (CLIs). If desired, administrators can employ their own keys.
