Use
The Internet Communication Framework (ICF) supplies the environment for handling HTTP requests in the work process of an SAP System (server and client).
When the SAP Web Application Server is installed with a release >=6.20 or there is an upgrade of a release <6.20 to a release >=6.20, all ICF services must be set to inactive - for the time being - for security reasons.
Therefore, you cannot access these services from your browser.
Using the following activity (transaction SICF), you can configure HTTP services and activate them individually (independently of the application assignment).
Requirements
Standard settings
Activities
If you wish to use the ICF, activate all the required services.
- If you wish to activated services in bundled form (for each application), use the step Activate HTTP Services for Each Application.
