RE: [EDI-L] The Joys of AS2

As Ken and others have mentioned you and your trading partner do not
need to match receiving port numbers. I.e. you can receive on 4080 and
they on 5080.

Are you saying that the partner is telling you what port you need to
listen on? Normally, the partner tells you what port you are supposed
to send to you and you tell them what port you listen on.

A large retail chain up here in Canada is moving to AS2.
They have listed 5 useable ports - 80, 2080, 4080, 5080 & 9080.

They are also requiring Drummond Group certification ;-(

I looked at a list of our existing AS2 clients, and only 20% of them use
one of these ports. The rest use other ports.

This has not been a problem in the past, since all of our clients were
doing
AS2 with WalMart and possibly one other TP.
As additional hubs switch to AS2, this may become a problem...

We are using bTrade...

The AS2 server has to listen on a particular port, so my question is:

How do you accommodate multiple AS2 ports?

Doing a port redirect in the firewall/router is one option...
Any others?

thanks
