About this task

Use of Sterling File Gateway is not strictly limited to the selections provided in this procedure. To simplify your initial use of AS2 with Sterling File Gateway, some suggested selections are provided.

To create a simple routing channel template for use with outbound AS2 messages:

Procedure

  1. Select Routes > Templates.
  2. Click Create.
  3. Type a name, for example AS2 Outbound.
  4. Select Static.
  5. Do not specify any special character handling.
  6. For Producer Groups, select All Partners.
  7. For Consumer Groups, select AS2 Partners.
  8. For the Producer Mailbox Path, type: 
    /${ProducerName}
  9. For Producer File Structures, select Unknown and use .+ as the regular expression. No facts are needed.
  10. For Delivery Channel Template, Consumer Mailbox Path, type: 
    /AS2/${ConsumerName}/Outbound
    Note: Specifying this format for the path matches the mailbox paths created when the System Administrator creates AS2 partners with the Use Default Inbound/Outbound Mailboxes option.
  11. For Consumer File Structure, select Unknown, with a file name format of ${ProducerFilename}.
