The asconfigurator utility
The asconfigurator utility is a command line tool for interacting with aspera.conf, the file that holds most configuration settings for your Aspera transfer server.
Why use asconfigurator?
Because aspera.conf is an XML file, users can configure their transfer server by editing the file directly. However, editing the file manually can be cumbersome and error-prone because correct syntax and structure are strictly enforced. The asconfigurator edits aspera.conf file through commands and parses, validates, and writes well-formed XML while also confirming that the values entered for parameters are valid.
With asconfigurator, you can edit aspera.conf quickly and safely, with 1 or 2 commands.After editing aspera.conf
Whether you use asconfigurator or manually edit aspera.conf, the file must be reread and certain services must be restarted for the changes to take effect. For more information, see Restarting Aspera Services for your Aspera transfer server.
