Embedded container definition, although most containers will be bound to a Port instance, it's not automatic, for instance JPA and other non network based containers might not.

- Method Detail
  - bind
```
void bind(Port port,
          String protocol)
```
    Binds a port using a specific protocol to this container.
    
    Parameters:
    
    port - the port instance to bind
    
    protocol - the protocol the port should be used for, can be null and the container can use the port for any protocol(s) it needs to.
  - getSniffers
```
List<Sniffer> getSniffers()
```
    Returns the list of sniffers associated with this container.
    
    Returns:
    
    a list of sniffers that will be used when application are deployed to the embedded server.
  - start
```
void start()
    throws LifecycleException
```
    Starts the embedded container instance
    
    Throws:
    
    LifecycleException - if the container cannot started
  - stop
```
void stop()
   throws LifecycleException
```
    Stops the embedded container instance
    
    Throws:
    
    LifecycleException - if the container cannot be stopped
