To create or modify a file retrieval policy

Prerequisites

A file retrieval policy is used to provide the NFM-P with the SFTP configuration required to access log, RSL, and I&C files on a Wavence device. File retrieval policies are created and assigned in the File Retrieval menu, and in the File Retrieval tab under NE Maintenance.

By default, there are three file retrieval policies already configured, one each for RSL, log, and I&C files, assigned to supported Wavence nodes in the network. You can configure the existing policies, or create and distribute any number of new ones, as required.

Note: To configure SFTP you require a host fingerprint. For information about acquiring a host fingerprint, see To determine a host fingerprint.

Steps

Choose Administration→NE Maintenance→File Retrieval from the NFM-P main menu. The File Retrieval form opens.

Click on the Retrieval Policy tab. A list of file retrieval policies appears.
