Webserver plugin is  used by web server to communicate with Application Servers for getting dynamic content such as servlets. Plugin-cfg.xml file is the web server plugin file. Whenever there is a new servlet, this has to be re-generated.

Plugin is configuration which holds the information related to the websphere application servers in the form of xml file . This has routing table internally which acts as load balancer by rerouting the multiple requests to available app servers.

Plugin is interface b/w the Webserver and Appserver, when ever request came to Webserver, if it is static request the Webserver it self only generate the response, if it is dynamic request then the request forward to application server with the help of Plugin, Plugin contains the all information about appservers and port numbers.

Plugin is acts as interface between WebServer and Application server and also it works as load balancer.
When ever client sent a request Plugin will check what kind of request it is in case of static request it will route to Webserver if Dynamic request it will sent to Appserver.

Plugin-cfg.xml is an xml file which resides inside a IBM Http server. Simply saying, plugin just routes the requests whichever is coming to your webserver.
A request from client (browser) will reach the webserver at first. This request is read by webserver plugin-cfg.xml file and tries to find out if this request can be served by checking which application is to be contacted to serve this request, whether the application server details inside the plugin can take this request and etc etc... If its verification goes good, then the request is taken and routed to respective application server on which the requested application is hosted. All these are done based on plugin weights, plugin algorithms, max connections to plugin, plugin timeouts and many more...
