Answer 1

Note :- The below table is taken from book Pro WCF: Practical Microsoft SOA Implementation -- Chris peiris and Denis mulder – Apress 2007

Below is a table which shows for which binding which mode is supported. We did not discuss the mixed mode. It’s nothing but combination of transport and mixed mode. For instance data encrypted and passed over WsHttp using HTTPS is a mixed mode of security. Encryption is nothing but message security and HTTPS is a transport mode. In a combination they form mixed mode.
