OFTP Adapter

Properties   Configuration Settings  

The OFTP Adapter adds OFTP send and receive capabilities to your BizTalk Server.

Remarks

The OFTP, or Odette File Transfer Protocol, Adapter adds a complete OFTP client to your BizTalk Server that enables it with file download and upload capability.

OFTP Receive Adapter

The OFTP Receive Adapter requires certain server properties be set. You must set the OFTPServer property to the remote location of the desired OFTP server. You may also set an OFTPPort if the server is not set to the default protocol port. For client authorization, you must set the ClientSSIDCode, ClientSFIDCode, and ClientPassword properties. And, for server authentication, you must set the ServerSSIDCode, ServerSFIDCode, and ServerPassword properties.

The adapter will connect to the OFTP server every PollingInterval and download all files in the server's outgoing queue, and submit these to the BizTalk Message Engine as individual messages.

OFTP Send Adapter

The OFTP Send Adapter also requires certain server properties be set. You must set the OFTPServer property to the remote location of the desired OFTP server. You may also set an OFTPPort if the server is not set to the default protocol port. For client authorization, you must set the ClientSSIDCode, ClientSFIDCode, and ClientPassword properties. And, for server authentication, you must set the ServerSSIDCode, ServerSFIDCode, and ServerPassword properties.

The adapter will connect to the OFTP server whenever it has a message to send. The adapter will attempt to upload the file to the server. It uses the name specified by VirtualFileName when sending to the server. If this is not specified, the temporary filename will be used.

Please refer to the section on adapter configuration for a description of how to configure receive locations and send ports for this adapter.
