Instant transfer

You can transfer a file by specifying only the "file name" and "remote host name" without configuring HULFT management information required for a normal file transfer. This function is called "instant transfer."

Instant transfer is useful when you want to quickly or temporarily transfer a file, or especially when you make a one-time transfer.

In addition, you can use instant transfer to verify communication.

Although instant transfer allows you to easily transfer files, it might lead you to unintentionally modify important files, such as system files of operating system, highly confidential files, or executable files used in business. It might even cause those files to become a target of attack from outside.

To prevent such risks, HULFT provides the following functions:

Function to allow only specific hosts to receive files via instant transfer

Prevents the risk that files are modified by malicious users.

Function to restrict the files received or the locations where files are received

Prevents the risk that system files and executable files are unintentionally modified.

For details, refer to the description of instant transfer in Administration Manual for each machine type.

The method for specifying the save destination of receive files differs depending on the operating system of the host. For details, refer to Operation Manual for each operating system.
