The Local Manager indicates the state of a service, transfer, authentication method, event handler or resource. If there are issues that have risen in an attempt to start these, the Local Manager can also provide details.
Event handlers are triggered by server events, and each event handler performs a specific action.
Create new transfer rules to automate your file transfer operations.
The Local Manager indicates the state of a service, transfer, authentication method, event handler or resource. If there are issues that have risen in an attempt to start these, the Local Manager can also provide details.
While operating, SFTPPlus will emit a set of events. Each event has a unique ID and defines a specific operation carried out by the server. The extensive audit trail is collated for system administration purposes such as monitoring activities. The trail will also help in meeting compliance requirements that involve logging of system activities.
The graphical configuration and administration tool provides a clear view of all changes made in a session and allows for review of all configuration changes before they are saved.
Account configuration options include types of authentication accepted, the home folder, permissions associated with the account and more.
HTTP / HTTPS options available for web browser file transfer manager.
A new authentication method can be added or changed via Local Manager. Options will differ depending on which authentication method is used.
The most common event handlers are the ones sending events to a specific destination. Each destination is configured using an event handler. Each event handler has its own configuration and is used for sending the event in a certain format or according to certain rules.
