Executing OFTP2 Transfers

OFTP2 clients can now initiate transfers to MFT Internet Server to a target server

• An OFTP2 client initiates a transfer to the OFTP2 server port.

• If using TLS, MFT optionally requests and validates a TLS client certificate.

• MFT extracts the partner's Odette ID.

• MFT matches the Odette ID against defined server definition's partner Odette ID.

• MFT validates the password sent by the OFTP2 client.

• If defined, MFT performs session authentication with the OFTP2 client.

• The server definition defines the user used for file transfers with this OFTP2 partner.

• The user definition is used to search for the Upload Transfer definition

• The transfer definition points to the target Server where the file is saved.

• As the OFTP2 client sends data to MFT, the data is streamed to the target Server (i.e. SFTP).

• If a signature is required, MFT verifies the signature sent by the client.

MFT Clients (HTTP, Platform Server, SFTP…) can initiate transfers to send to an OFTP2 server

• An SFTP client initiates a transfer to MFT.

• Credentials (key or password) are used to log in to a user.

• The SFTP client defines a Virtual Alias and a file name.

• The Virtual Alias is used to select a transfer definition.

• The transfer definition points to an OFTP2 server.

• MFT connects to the target IP name and IP port defined.

• If using TLS, MFT validates the server's TLS certificate.

• MFT verifies the partner's Odette ID.

• MFT validates the password sent by the OFTP2 client.

• If defined, MFT performs session authentication with the OFTP2 client.

• As the SFTP client sends data to MFT, the data is streamed to the OFTP2 server.

• As MFT is sending data, it optionally signs the data.
