Aspera Transfer Nodes

Transfer Node

A node is a machine running an Aspera transfer server product (IBM Aspera Enterprise Server, IBM Aspera Connect Server) which has been configured for Node API. Aspera web applications authenticate to remote node services using a Node API username and password. Different nodes may use different Node API username and password pairs.

Configuring a Transfer Node for Use with Shares

Transfer nodes do not have to run on the same platform as the Shares server. To set up your machine to run as a transfer node, follow the instructions pertinent to the platform of the machine.
