The handler-chain element defines the handlerchain.

Handlerchain can be defined such that the
handlers in the handlerchain operate on ALL ports of a service,
on a specific port,
or on a LIST of
protocol-bindings.
The choice of elements service-name-pattern, port-name-pattern, and
protocol-bindings are used to specify whether the handlers in the handler-chain are for a
service, port or protocol binding.

If none of these choices are specified with the handler-chain
element, then the handlers specified in the handler-chain will be applied on everything.







Java class for handler-chainType complex type.



The following schema fragment specifies the expected content contained within this class.



<complexType name="handler-chainType">
   <complexContent>
     <restriction base="{http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema}anyType">
       <sequence>
         <choice minOccurs="0">
           <element name="service-name-pattern" type="{http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema}QName"/>
           <element name="port-name-pattern" type="{http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema}QName"/>
           <element name="protocol-bindings" type="{http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee}protocol-bindingListType"/>
         </choice>
         <element name="handler" type="{http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee}handlerType"
maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
       </sequence>
       <attribute name="id" type="{http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema}ID" />
     </restriction>
   </complexContent>
</complexType>
as you have none of these specified you fallback  to <handlerChains> defined in web.xml as something like
   <handlerChains>
      <chain runAt="server">
        <handler className="service.ServerHandler1"
            headers="ns1:loginfo"
            xmlns:ns1="http://example.com/headerprops">
          <property name="name" value="server1"/>
        </handler>

        <handler className="service.ServerHandler2">
          <property name="name" value="server2"/>
        </handler>
      </chain>
    </handlerChains>
    </endpoint>
