Solstice FTAM
Data Sheet
|
Solstice FTAM implements the ISO FTAM protocol (ISO 8571) for transferring, accessing, and managing files between diverse file systems. This method of managing files works by mapping the characteristics of diverse file systems to a common model - the virtual file store. Solstice FTAM supports concurrent connections to X.25, TCP/IP, and local area networks such as Ethernet and FDDI.
 Benefits
Initiator and Responder ApplicationsSolstice FTAM provides a Solstice FTAM initiator application that runs on the Solstice OSI Communication Platform and initiates connections to any FTAM responder. It also provides a Solstice FTAM responder application that runs on Solstice OSI and accepts connections from any FTAM initiator.The Solstice FTAM Initiator ( osiftam) is an FTAM client application that is used to initiate connections to a remote
FTAM responder application (such as osiftr) and to manipulate files remotely once the connection is established.
The Solstice FTAM Initiator has a command-line interface that resembles that of the UNIX ftp facility. However, in
addition to the basic file transfer facilities offered by ftp, Solstice FTAM offers extensive file access, management, and
error-recovery functions.
The Solstice FTAM Responder ( osiftr) is an FTAM server application that operates transparently to respond to
requests initiated by remote FTAM initiator application, such as osiftam.Developing Custom FTAM ApplicationsSolstice FTAM provides an API for developing customized initiator applications that run on the Solstice OSI Communication Platform. It also provides a stubs file of skeleton C functions that are used to customize the Solstice FTAM Responder application.Configuration and AdministrationSolstice FTAM includes an easy-to-use graphical user interface (GUI) to configure the Solstice FTAM applications. It includes a facility for building a remote systems database (RSDB) that contains the OSI addresses of all the systems that can be accessed using the Solstice FTAM Initiator.Protocol InformationSupported Document Types:
LicensingSolstice FTAM incorporates a floating license system. The number of Right-To-Use licenses defines the number of machines on which the software can run concurrently.Platforms and RequirementsRequired
