Meaning of TransientContext for a JNDI entry

My GlassFish v2.1's "asadmin list-jndi-entries" returns :
jdbc: com.sun.enterprise.naming.TransientContext
ejb: com.sun.enterprise.naming.TransientContext
... for a simple servlet/SLSB/JPA combination.

Note that the JNDI browser in the admin console does not show these
entries.

What is the meaning of TransientContext?
Is this because my Session Bean only has a local interface?
I'm trying to understand the value I should use for @Stateless's
mappedName attribute.

thanks,
