Meaning of the output fields

STARTED

Specifies whether openFT is activated (via START-FT or automatically) or not.

PROC-LIM
Maximum number of tasks that can be reserved simultaneously for the execution of FT requests. The value is defined by the PROCESS-LIMIT operand in the MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS command.
Default setting following installation: 2

CONN-LIM
Maximum number of transport connections that can be reserved for asynchronous file transfer requests. Since each transport connection can only process one request at a time, CONN-LIMIT also defines the maximum number of requests that can be processed

simultaneously. One third of the transport connections are reserved for requests from remote systems. The value of CONN-LIMIT is defined by the CONNECTION-LIMIT operand in the MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS command.
Default setting following installation: 8

ADM-CLIM
Maximum number of asynchronous administration requests including ADM traps that can be processed simultaneously. The value of ADM-CLIM is specified with the operand ADM-CONNECTION-LIM in the command MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS.
Default setting following installation: 8

RQ-LIM
Maximum number of FT requests that can be entered at the same time in the request queue of the local system. The value can be modified using the REQUEST-LIMIT operand in the MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS command.
Default setting following installation: 2000

MAX-RQ-LIFE
Maximum number of days that an FT request is stored in the request file after its start time. When this period expires, the FT request is automatically removed from the request file. The value is defined in the MAX-REQUEST-LIFETIME operand of the MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS command.
Default setting following installation: 30

TU-SIZE
Maximum size of a transport unit in bytes. The value is defined with the TRANSPORT-UNIT-SIZE operand in the MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS command. The load placed on the transport system by openFT can be controlled using this operand.
Default setting following installation: 65535

PTN-CHK
Defines whether or not enhanced sender checking is activated. The value is defined with the PARTNER-CHECK operand in the MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS command.
Default setting following installation: STD

DYN-PART
specifies whether dynamic partners are permitted (*ON) or not (*OFF). The value is defined with the DYNAMIC-PARTNERS operand in the MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS command.
Default setting following installation: ON

SEC-LEV
Local default value for the security level of the partner systems. This operand is only effective if FTAC functionality is being used. An important part of the access protection functions provided by this product lies in the allocation of security levels to remote systems. To this end, each system is allocated a security level designated using an integer in the range 1 to 100.

A default value for all remote systems is set by means of an operating parameter using the SECURITY-LEVEL operand in the MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS command. All partners in the partner list for which the value STD is specified in the output of the SHOW-FT-PARTNERS command for SECLEV refer to this value.
This value is irrelevant for free dynamic partners (i.e. partner not entered in the partner list). Default setting following installation: B-P-ATTR

FTAC-LOG
Scope for FTAC logging (ALL, MODIFY, REJECTED).
The scope of FTAC logging is specified in the LOGGING operand of the MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS command.
Default setting following installation: ALL

FT-LOG
Scope for FT logging (ALL, FAIL, NONE).
The scope of FT logging is specified in the LOGGING operand of the MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS command.
Default setting following installation: ALL

ADM-LOG
Scope of ADM logging (ALL, FAIL, MODIFY, NONE).
The scope of ADM logging is specified in the LOGGING operand of the MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS command.
Default setting following installation: ALL

OPENFT-APPL
Port number used by the local openFT. *STD means that the default port number 1100 is used. The value is specified with the OPENFT-APPLICATION operand in the command MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS.
The second line specifies whether the asynchronous inbound server is activated for openFT (ACTIVE), deactivated (DISABLED) or unavailable (INACT). The ACTIVE-APPLICATIONS operand in the command MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS is used for activation and deactivation.
Default setting following installation: *STD

FTAM-APPL
Port number of the local FTAM server, where necessary supplemented by the transport selector, session selector and presentation selector. *STD means that the default value is used (port number 4800 and $FTAM as the transport selector).
The value can be modified with the FTAM-APPLICATION operand in the MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS command.
Default setting following installation: *STD

FTP-PORT
Port number used by the local FTP server. The value is specified with the FTP-PORT operand in the command MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS.

The second line specifies whether the asynchronous inbound server is activated for FTP (ACTIVE/DISABLED) or is unavailable or not installed (INACT/NAVAIL). The ACTIVE-APPLICATIONS operand in the command MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS is used for activation and deactivation.
Default setting following installation: 21

ADM-PORT
Specifies the port number used by the local FT for remote administration. The default value is 11000. The value is specified with the ADM-PORT operand in the command MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS.
The second line specifies whether the asynchronous inbound server is activated for remote administration requests (ACTIVE), deactivated (DISABLED) or unavailable (INACT). The ACTIVE-APPLICATIONS operand in the command MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS is used for activation and deactivation.
Default setting following installation: 11000

RSA-PROP
Specifies the length of the RSA key used for encryption. This key is only used for the encryption of the AES key which the two partners have agreed upon (or the DES key). openFT uses the AES key to encrypt the request description data and possibly the file contents. The value is specified with the RSA-PROPOSED operand in the command MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS.
Default setting following installation: 2048

RSA-MIN
Specifies the minimum RSA key length (in bits) that is accepted by the communication partner for the transfer of the AES key of the session. The value is specified with the RSA-MINIMUM operand in the command MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS.
Default setting following installation: 0

AES-MIN
Specifies the minimum AES key length (in bits) that is required from a communication partner. The value is specified with the AES-MINIMUM operand in the command MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS.
Default setting following installation: NONE

ENC-MAND
Specifies whether user data encryption is mandatory for openFT requests.
The value can be modified with the ENCRYPTION-MANDATORY operand in the MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS command.
Default setting following installation: NO

HOST-NAME
Name of the BCAM host. The default value is *NONE, i.e. the real BCAM host is used.The value can be modified with the HOST-NAME operand in the MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS command.
Default setting following installation: *NONE

IDENTIFICATION

Instance identifier of the openFT instance currently set and the name of the local system. The instance identifier is defined with the IDENTIFICATION operand of the MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS command and is used to identify the instance in the partner systems.
Default setting following installation: Name of the local BCAM host

DEL-LOG
Specifies whether automatic deletion of log records is activated.
The values can be modified using the DELETE-LOGGING operand in the MODIFY-FT-OPTIONS command.
Default setting following installation: OFF
