Step 1

From the UDMG navigation pane, select Management > Partners> Remote Partners. The Remote Partner list displays.

Step 2

Click New. The Remote Partner Details displays.

Fill in the details for the sample server from Tutorial - Creating and Manually Starting an SFTP Server

In the Partner Name field, enter stonebranch-sftp-01-client
In the Protocol field, select SFTP
In the IP Address field, enter 0.0.0.0
In the Port field, enter 4100
In the Member of Business Service, select one of the available Business Services. More business Services can be added after the rule is created.

Step 3

Click the Accounts tab on the Remote Partner detail panel. Add a new account.

In the Name field, enter stonebranch-01-client-user.
Leave the Password field, empty.

Step 4

Click the Certificate tab on the Partner detail panel and add the public host key of the server.

The server public key can be retrieved with ssh-keyscan tool:

Panel
`$ ssh-keyscan -t rsa -p 4100 0.0.0.0` `# 0.0.0.0:4010 SSH-2.0-Go` `[0.0.0.0]:4010 ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAACAQCnH0...`

Click the Add Certificate button.

In the Name field, enter ssh-rsa
In the Public key field, paste the value of the server public key

The public key can also be fetched and stored automatically with the Fetch host key button:

Step 5

Add a new certificate record for the client host key, this is needed for the Host-Based Authentication.

Generate a private SSH key, for example:

Panel
`$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "stonebranch-cert-client-01" -m PEM -f "stonebranch-client-01.crt" -N ""`

Note that the generated public key (stonebranch-client-01.crt.pub) is needed for the setup on the server side.

Click the Add Certificate button.

In the Name field, enter ssh-rsa-hostbased-private
In the Private key field, paste the value of the private key from stonebranch-client-01.crt
Click Save
The list shows both the public host key (with the globe icon) and the private key (with the key icon).

Step 6

In the Configuration section of the Remote Partner details, switch on the Host-based authentication toggle.

The Private Key Certificate field and Authorized Accounts button appear.

Step 7

In the Private Key Certificate field, input the name of the certificate record with the client private key: ssh-rsa-hostbased-private
In the Authorized Accounts field, choose the remote account from the list: stonebranch-01-client-user

For selected account(s), the connection will be attempted with the host-based authentication method.

Step 8

Click Save and Confirm.

Step 9 Be sure to have completed the local SFTP server configuration with the public key that was generated above. See Tutorial - Using Host-Based Authentication for an SFTP Server.

Step 10

Configure the rules at partner and/or account level.

For example, stonebranch-sftp-01_partner_send

Create the rule:

Please note that because the remote partner is set in this tutorial to be a local UDMG SFTP server, the Remote Directory is set to the virtual path (sft-01-in) of a receiving rule for the local server:

Authorize the sending rule in the Rules tab of the Remote Partner details.

Step 11

Initiate a file transfer to upload a file.

Use the Command Line Interface to register the transfer:

Panel
`$ udmg-client transfer add -p stonebranch-sftp-01-client -l stonebranch-01-client-user -w send -r stonebranch-sftp-01_partner_send -f test-hb.txt`

Step 12

Follow the transfer request from the Activity Transfer and History dashboards.

There are 2 records in this case, because UDMG is used both as the client and the server in the transaction:

Sending the file to the Partner, identified by the rule stonebranch-sftp-01_partner_send and the flag isSend
Receiving the file on the Server, identified by the rule stonebranch-sftp-01_receive and the flag isServer
