Enable net.tcp protocol from Web.config

I have WCF service that has http and net.tcp endpoints. I have deployed the service to IIS 7.5 (Server 2008R2), everything is working good.

My question is this, is there a way to set enabled protocols for the IIS application through Web.config?? Right now I have to go to the Application in IIS and manually change the Advanced settings and add net.tcp to the list of available protocols before the service can be activated, see pic for the screenshot.

IIS Protocol Settings

Solution

  • No, this setting isn't available via web.config. It can be set either via the IIS Manager as you're doing, or via the AppCmd.exe command-line utility, as in the example below:

    %windir%\system32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe set app "Default Web Site/FirstWcfHost" /enabledProtocols:http,net.tcp
