ActiveTransfer Architecture
ActiveTransfer consists of the following components, which interact with your internal FTP clients and with other applications and systems:
ActiveTransfer Server, which resides behind a firewall.
ActiveTransfer Gateway, which acts as an intermediary between the Internet and the internal
ActiveTransfer Server.
ActiveTransfer web client, which provides access to
ActiveTransfer Server to perform file transfers.
ActiveTransfer Server includes an Integration Server package called WmMFT, which enables ActiveTransfer Server to communicate with Integration Server and My webMethods Server.
The following diagram illustrates how these components typically interact:
