AS2 OUT
| Options | Description |
|---|---|
| Connection Settings | |
| Endpoint | The endpoint URL used to send AS2 messages to partners. You can either use an HTTP or HTTPS URL as your requirement. If you use HTTPS, the sender's profile must have the corresponding SSL certificate. The URL must have the protocol, hostname, port (optional), and the complete path. For example, http://trader.com or https://trader.com |
| Username | The username used to connect to the partner's endpoint. |
| Password | The password that is used to connect to the partner's endpoint. |
| Message Settings | |
| Enable message signing | Enable this property to sign outbound documents with the sender's private key. If you enable signing, the sender must have a corresponding certificate for the sign-verify usage. Disabled by default. |
| Signing algorithm | Select the algorithm to sign the documents. |
| Enable message encryption | Enable this property to encrypt outbound documents by using the receiver's public key. If you enable encryption, the receiver must have a corresponding certificate for the encrypt-decrypt usage. Disabled by default. |
| Encryption algorithm | Select the encryption algorithm to encrypt the documents. |
| Enable message compression | Enable this property to compress the outbound message. Disabled by default. |
| Acknowledgment Settings | |
| Request MDN | Enable this property to request the receiver to return an MDN. Enabled by default. |
| Request signed MDN | Enable this property to request the receiver to send a signed MDN. Disabled by default. |
| Request asynchronous MDN | Enable this property to request an asynchronous MDN. By default this property is disabled. If you disable the option, it means that you are requesting synchronous MDNs. |
| Asynchronous MDN URL | Remote or native endpoint that accepts the asynchronous inbound MDNs. You can
use both HTTP and HTTPS URLs to receive asynchronous MDNs. To receive secured asynchronous MDNs, use
an HTTPS URL. If you turn on the Request Asynchronous MDN option and do not
specify an Asynchronous MDN URL, webMethods B2B
switches to sending synchronous MDNs. For example,
|
| Document delivery rate | |
| Enable | Limit the rate at which documents must be delivered to the endpoint. Persist the document in the database so this option can be used to deliver documents in a regulated manner. |
| Maximum number of requests per minute | Specify the maximum number of business documents that can be delivered to the outbound channel endpoint. You can tune this rate based on the performance of the partner systems that receive the business documents on this endpoint. The default value is 1 (minimum). The maximum value is 1000. |
