- The DDN MANAGEMENT BULLETIN is distributed online by the DDN Network
- Information Center under DISA contract as a means of communicating
- official policy, procedures and other information of concern to
- management personnel at DDN facilities. Back issues may be read
- through the TACNEWS server ("@n" command at the TAC) or may be
- obtained by FTP (or Kermit) from the NIC.DDN.MIL host [192.112.36.5]
- using login="anonymous" and password="guest". The pathname
- for bulletins is ddn-news/ddn-mgt-bulletin-nn.txt (where "nn" is the
- bulletin number).

- SUBJECT: DISA'S FTAM/FTP APPLICATION LAYER GATEWAY
-
- DISA's Defense Information System Network (DISN) Program Management
- Office is making available to MILNET users a future DISN network
- component which will provide file transfer interoperability between
- the DoD Standard TCP/IP and GOSIP applications. This FTAM/FTP gateway
- is being advertised to MILNET users in order to collect statistical
- data regarding usage for the purpose of quantifying subscriber
- requirements for file transfer interoperability on DISN.
-
-
- 1. DISA currently has FTAM/FTP gateways on 2 Sun SPARC system platforms.
- The FTP/FTAM gateways on the above mentioned Sun platforms are ISODE
- (Version 7.0) and are GOSIP V.2 compliant. These platforms are intended
- for experimental use primarily and for limited operational capability only.
-
- 2. To make the FTP/FTAM Gateway accessible to your users, configuration
- tables must be modified to recognize the existence of a FTP/FTAM Gateway.
- Both OSI and TCP hosts require completion of these steps prior to accessing
- the gateway.
-
- The following criteria must be met before continuing:
-
- a. A host must be connected to the Milnet and support
- either the TCP/IP and FTP protocol suites or the OSI and FTAM
- protocol suites.
-
- b. Your version of FTAM must support the use of the "set qualifier"
- command.
-
- c. Your version of FTP must support the use of the "PORT" operand.
-
- d. Your FTP or FTAM client must support the use of userid and password.
-
- e. The system administrator must have the ability to directly, or via
- requests, configure the necessary information listed below in order
- to establish connectivity between the client host and the
- FTP/FTAM gateway host.
-
- 3. If you wish access to our ALG's, typically, you would be asked to fill
- out a TCPand OSI worksheet.
-
- a. If you have a TCP host, you must provide the following information
- to the person which will assign you a gateway host:
-
- 1. The name, phone number and email address of the point of contact.
-
- 2. Your official Internet address and host name with all aliases.
-
- 3. Your DOD organization (i.e. NCTS/NAVY).
-
- 4. The OSI host you wish to connect to and any intermediate systems
- to be routed through such that routing tables and host tables may
- be updated. (Since a TCP administrator may not know the necessary
- OSI routing information, a POC for the responding FTAM host may be
- all that is required.)
-
- 5. The internet domain with which you are associated.
-
-
- b. If you have an OSI host, you must provide the following information
- to the person which will assign you a gateway host:
-
- 1. The name, phone number and email address of the point of contact.
-
- 2. Your DOD organization (i.e., NCTS/NAVY)
-
- 3. Your Presentation Address which includes routing domain, NSAP,
- TSEL, SSEL, and PSEL.
-
- 4. If using another host to route through, the routing information
- from originators end system.
-
-
- 4. The following are examples using the FTAM/FTP gateway. The user would
- type the information inside the quotes but not the quotes.
-
- a. FTP to FTAM file transfer Example:
-
- $"ftp washdc1-osigw.disa.mil 531"
- user(washdc1-osigw..disa.mil:tcpuser):"osiuser@osihost"
- passwd(washdc1-osigw.disa..mil:osiuser@osihost)"*****"
- ftp>"get file1 file1.get1"
- 20083 bytes received in 3 seconds(20.1kbytes/sec)
- ftp>"put file3 file3.put2"
- 20083 bytes received in 1 second(20.1 Kbytes/sec)
-
-
- b. FTAM to FTP file transfer Example:
-
- $"ftam"
- ftam>"set qualifier ftpstore"
- ftam>"set realstore unix"
- ftam>"open ftam.washdc1"
- user(washdc1-osigw:osiuser):"tcpuser@tcphost"
- password(washdc1-osigw:tcpuser@tcphost):"****"
- washdc1-osigw>"get file1 file1.get1"
- ftam:1069 bytes received in .1 sec
- washdc1-osigw>"put file2 file2.put2"
- ftam:50207 bytes sent in 5.6 sec

- 5. Since we are working in a testbed environment, products are continuously
- being updated and tested. Therefore this document is subject to change
- and may be treated as a draft.
