Attributes and Elements

The following sections describe attributes, child elements, and parent elements.

Attributes

Attribute	Description
mode	Specifies the type of security that controls integrity, confidentiality and authentication. Valid values include the following: None: This disables security. Transport: Protection and authentication are offered by the transport. This applies to the message security between the two queue managers. There is no security offered between the application and queue manager. Existing Msmq applications are functionally equivalent with this type of security mode. Message: Specifies end-end application security. There is no security offered at the transport layer. This is similar to the security offered by other standard bindings. Both: Offers security at both the transport and SOAP messaging layer. The same credential is required at both the levels. The default value is Transport. This attribute is of type NetMsmqSecurityMode.
