The outgoing traffic you are correct in saying that it goes from the Mid-Tier.. the external client communicates with the Mid-Tier when communication comes in as a web service, and the Mid-tier communicates to the AR Server through the Web Server Plugin..
I think the process of the actual generation of the WSDL however happens on the AR Server. At least that is my understanding. When you attempt to create a WSDL, using the Web Service creation object from the Dev Studio or the Remedy Admin Tool, the plugin creates the WSDL, and using the default web server path, connects to the web server, and saves it on the web server.. I may be wrong, but that’s my understanding, so if I am wrong, please someone correct me..

As part of our network/port validation, we need to know whether the outgoing traffic for a published web service (one that is consumed by the external system) is taken from the mid-tier server or the AR server. I contend that it is the mid-tier server, because that is where the WSDL is generated. My boss disagrees. Can you settle this for us? I've looked in the docs, but didn't really see anything.
