The option selected here determines how the processing workstation accesses files for processing.

Select one of the following:

Download Protocol Option

Description

No Download

Files are not downloaded from another source before processing, they are accessible directly from the workstation's local storage, LAN, or WAN. This option is selected by default.

Note:

When using FTP with the No Download option, preprocessors cannot be used unless they are created with the ability to access files via FTP.

FTP Download

Files are downloaded from a server using File Transfer Protocol and saved locally before they are processed.

Note:

Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) is not supported for use with Keyword Update.

The option of using FTP or a socket connection is not practical for retrieving large reports because the whole file will be retrieved temporarily to the Client workstation.

After selecting FTP Download, you must also configure the following:

  • Enter the URL of the FTP Server in the field next to the option. For example, enter FTP Server\:Port\\FTP Download Path/ where FTP Server is the name or IP address of the FTP server and FTP Download Path is the full, complete path to the directory on the FTP server where the import file resides.

  • Click the Connect button, and enter the user name and password used to connect to the FTP server in the FTP User Name and FTP Password fields, respectively.

    If your FTP server requires a fully qualified domain name, enter the user name as name@domain.net.

  • Enter a \(backslash) in the Default Directory field, or enter the path of a specific local directory where you want files from the FTP server to be downloaded to for processing.

  • Enter the name of the import file in the Default File Name field.

See FTP Download Considerations for more information.

Socket Download

TCP/IP sockets can be used if it is the only way to capture the Keyword Update data.

Select the Socket Download option in specific instances to allow a connection that will download information to your computer. Enter the specification number of the socket download connection in the Socket Number text box. If you select Socket Direct, the information will be streamed directly to your computer.

Note:

Before processing files, the files must be accessible from the workstation.

Socket Direct

Active for Check Image Processing only.

Tape Drive
