Follow the steps below to test an incoming connection from a remote client machine to the Enterprise Server.
Prerequisites:
-
On the client machine, verify your connection to Enterprise Server.
Run a
ping command to verify connectivity to the host. In
this example, the address of
Enterprise Server is 10.0.0.2 and the output shows successful responses from the
host.
# ping 10.0.0.2
PING 10.0.0.2 (10.0.0.2): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 10.0.0.2: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=8.432 ms
64 bytes from 10.0.0.2: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=7.121 ms
64 bytes from 10.0.0.2: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=5.116 ms
64 bytes from 10.0.0.2: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=4.421 ms
64 bytes from 10.0.0.2: icmp_seq=4 ttl=64 time=3.050 ms
...
If
the output returns "Destination host unreachable," check the firewall
configuration of the server. For more information, see Clients Can't Establish Connection.
-
On your client machine, initiate a transfer to Enterprise Server.
Run the following command on your client machine (where
aspera_user_1 is the
example transfer
user):
# ascp -P 33001 -T --policy=fair -l 10000 -m 1000 /client-dir/files aspera_user_1@10.0.0.2:/dir
This
command specifies the following values for the transfer:
| Item |
Value |
| Host Address |
10.0.0.2 |
| Transfer User |
aspera_user_1 |
| Files to upload |
/client-dir/files |
| Destination Folder |
{user's docroot}/dir |
| Transfer Options |
- Maximum transfer rate = 10 Mbps (
-l
10000)
- Minimum transfer rate = 1 Mbps (
-m
1000)
- TCP port that is used to initiate the FASP session = 33001 (
-P 33001).
This command does not alter ascp or the
configuration of your SSH server.
- Disable encryption (
-T)
- Fair transfer policy (
--policy=fair)
