# Create queuing bridge connections

A Tuxedo queuing bridge provides a bi-directional JMS interface that allows WTC applications communicate with Tuxedo application environments. To create a Tuxedo queuing bridge:

1. If you have not already done so, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Lock & Edit (see Use the Change Center).
2. In the Administration Console, expand Interoperability and select WTC Service.
3. On the WTC Servers page, click the name of a WTC Service.
4. Click the Queuing Bridge tab.
5. On the WTC Tuxedo Queuing Bridges page, click New.

   See Configuration Options.

6. Modify Tuxedo Queuing Bridge attributes for your environment.
7. Click Finish.
8. To activate these changes, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Activate Changes.
   Not all changes take effect immediately—some require a restart (see Use the Change Center).
