Generics - SFTP Connector

Description - A generic for configuring the SFTP connector.

 

Parameter Groups

  Parameter Type Description
* Host: string DNS name (or IP address) of the SFTP server that you want to connect to
* Port: string Port to connect to on the SFTP site, blank for default port 22
  Buffer Size: integer Size of the SFTP buffer to be used when sending or retrieving data. The default value of 32768 is used if this field is not set. A larger buffer may improve performance but setting this field to a value greater than 65536 will default to 65536. The value must be entered as a whole number (i.e. 32768, 65536). iWay recommends leaving the buffer size at 32768.

  Password: password User's password on the SSH-enabled server
  Private Key: string Path to the private key file for public-key authentication.

  • HTTP {http} - An HTTP Proxy serves two intermediary roles as an HTTP Client and an HTTP Server for security, management, and caching functionality. The HTTP Proxy routes HTTP Client requests from a Web browser to the Internet, while supporting the caching of Internet data.
  • SOCKS4 {socks4} - SOCKS Version 4, that provides for unsecured firewall traversal for TCP-based client-server applications.
  • SOCKS5 {socks5} - SOCKS5 extends the SOCKS Version 4 model to include UDP, and extends the framework to include provisions for generalized strong authentication schemes, and extends the addressing scheme to encompass domain-name and V6 IP addresses.
  Host: string DNS name (or IP address) of the Proxy server that you want to connect to
