Routing AS2 Traffic through DMZ Gateway
Using the DMZ Gateway as proxy is available only in EFT Server Enterprise.
You can configure Event Rules to cause AS2 traffic to route through the DMZ Gateway using the AS2
Send file to host Action. You can use the AS2 Send File to host Action in the Folder Monitor, Timer,
and all file-based Events.
To route AS2 traffic through DMZ Gateway
1. Create a new Event Rule, such as a File Uploaded event. (If necessary, refer to "Creating Event
Rules" in the EFT Server documentation.)
2. Add the AS2 Send file to host Action to the Rule, then click the file or host link. The AS2 Send
File dialog box appears.
3. In the AS2 Send File dialog box, specify trading partner profile to use or define the trading
partner options.
4. Add the Copy/Move File to Host Action to the Rule.
5. In the Rule pane, click one of the undefined parameters (e.g., '%FS.PATH%'). The Offload
Action Wizard appears.
6. Follow the instructions in Using DMZ Gateway as an Outbound Proxy to define the Rule.
Using DMZ Gateway as an Outbound Proxy
Using the DMZ Gateway as proxy is available only in EFT Server Enterprise.
DMZ Gateway's primary use is as an inbound proxy. Outbound connections that originate from EFT
Server Enterprise will route through normal network mechanisms to reach the destination; however, it is
possible to configure EFT Server's Event Rules using the
Copy/Move file to host Action to use the DMZ
Gateway Enterprise as an outbound proxy.
To configure an Event Rule to use DMZ Gateway Enterprise as an outbound proxy
1. In EFT Server, follow the procedure in Creating Event Rules , or select the rule to which you want
to add the Action. For example, create a Scheduler (Timer) Event .
2. In the right pane, in the Actions list, click Copy/Move (push) file to host .
3. In the Rule pane, click one of the undefined parameters (e.g., '%FS.PATH%').
The Offload Action Wizard appears.
