OFTP Configuration

Configure an Odette FTP (OFTP) host starting with the generic OFTP pre-configured host.

Only use this host if Cleo does not have a pre-configured host for the connecting trading partner. Visit www.cleo.com/products/lexihubs.asp for a list of available pre-configured hosts.

As part of the configuration process, you must also configure your Local Listener to receive OFTP messages. See Configuring a Local Listener for OFTP and Configuring OFTP Service for detailed information about configuring your local host for OFTP.

First activate either a trading partner specific host or the generic OFTP pre-configured host.

Click the Templates tab in the tree pane.
If necessary, expand the Hosts tree in the Templates tab to find the host you want to use.
Right-click the host and select Clone and Activate.
The entire pre-configured host branch (including a mailbox and actions) is copied and activated, the Active tab is selected in the tree pane, and the new active host is selected in the tree. If necessary, you can append the new active host alias with a number to make it unique.
Note: The original pre-configured host remains in the pre-configured tree.

Important: If you leave any of these panels without clicking Apply, your work will not be saved. You can configure the product to prompt to you click Apply if you try to leave the page. However, in the web UI, if you make updates to a host and then click a part of the product not related to a host, for example any of the buttons in the banner, the product will not prompt you to click Apply and your updates will not be saved.
