RA FTP Agent Architecture

A sample architecture diagram is shown below. This diagram includes one host where an RA FTP Agent is installed, and two hosts where Agents are not installed. In order to FTP from and to the hosts where RA FTP Agent are not installed, you need to define Connection objects for them.

Connection objects are created from the UserInterface and are stored in the database of Automation Engine objects.

Notice that there is a proxy server in place between the host with the RA FTP Agent and the other hosts. For information on conferring proxy server settings for FTP servers on remote hosts, see topic Creating RA FTP Agent Connection Objects for Each FTP Server.
