according to the release notes ENTESB-291 is fixed in Fuse ESB Enterprise 7.1. This would provide the ability to bind the RMI registry host to a specific interface in environments with multi user interfaces.

The org.apache.karaf.management.cfg file has a place holder for this property. However, even when setting this property, e.g.

#

1. Host for RMI registry
   #
   rmiRegistryHost = TestRegHost

and

serviceUrl = service:jmx:rmi://TestRegHost:${rmiServerPort}/jndi/rmi://${rmiRegistryHost}:${rmiRegistryPort}/karaf-${karaf.name}

When started port 44444 is being listened on for all addresses:

test@TestRegHost ~]$ netstat -n -l|grep 44444
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:44444 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN

I can bind the ssh, jmx, and tcp ports to specific addresses:

[test@TestRegHost ~]$ netstat -n -l|grep 8101
tcp 0 0 10.142.165.13:8101 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
[test@TestRegHost ~]$ netstat -n -l|grep 1099
tcp 0 0 10.142.165.13:1099 0.0.0.0:* LIST
