How to Enlist a Send Port or Send Port Group

This topic describes how to use the BizTalk Server Administration console to enlist a send port or send port group. Enlisting a send port or send port group associates the send port or send port group with a BizTalk host and creates the subscriptions for the send port or send port group. If a send port group does not contain a send port, enlisting the send port group does not create any subscriptions. In addition, enlisting a send port group does not change the state of any send ports that it contains.

Note

Starting a send port or send port group also automatically enlists it. In addition, by default starting an application enlists and starts all of its artifacts. For more information, see How to Start a Send Port or Send Port Group. Also see How to Start and Stop a BizTalk Application.
