IIOP transports are connective transports which support both client and server modes on top of TCP/IP. SST provides a predefined transport configuration scheme called iiop. This configuration is much the same as standard TCP transport configurations except that it specifies that you use an IIOP-specific connection class.

You can ignore client-side handling of disconnects where requests are not yet satisfied or you can handle them by resending the request, if allowed, or signaling a COMM_FAILURE exception if not. To obtain this behavior, send iiopHandleDisconnects to an application context on creation. This is done automatically for you in the automated IIOP application context creation methods.
