Overview of AS2 AS2 Components in SBI Message Disposition Notification Digital Certificates Data Flows Implementation in SBI Best Practices


Overview of AS2

Specification to transport data. Secure and reliable transfer. EDIINT Secure/Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions Encryption for the actual payloads exchanged. Ability to receive a signed receipt. Prevention of impersonation. Internet and Firewall friendly. Any type of file.

Few points to be noted and best practices.

The Sterling B2B Integrator AS2 Edition functionality does not support mailboxes. EDIINT MDN Building service for MDN's for deferred extraction. EDIINTParse uses the EDIINT Pipeline service. The Sterling B2B Integrator AS2 Edition includes a configured URL that runs the

EDIINTParse business process on both the base port and the base port + 33. Mailbox and file systems behave differently when a message is in error. By default, Sterling B2B Integrator uses AS2 version 1.1 in the MDN. AS2VersionForMDN property in customer_overrides.properties file The Java servlet provides the HTTP listener service for receiving AS2 messages from

trading partners.



You can view the files in the inbound and outbound folders in the File Tracking page. AS2 wizard now have an automated list to make navigation easier. Deferred extraction must not be enabled if duplicate suppression is enabled. The identity name and AS2 identifier belong to the selected identity itself. When you Delete, you remove this trading partner from the database. Deleting trading partner will delete all the associated resources and any dependant

relationship(s). This action cannot be undone. You can delete only trading partner information and not organization information. An additional profile is required to send asynchronous MDNs to a URL that is different than

the trading partner's main URL.



Notification options on trading partner basis. When you click delete, you will be recommended to export and save a copy to offline

storage. Deleting an organization will delete all the associated resources and any dependant

relationship(s). This action cannot be undone. Deleting a relationship does not affect its associated profiles (organization and partner). Deleting a relationship does not delete the filesystem/mailbox directories, or the business

processes configured for direct processing. Sterling B2B Integrator encrypts AS2 documents and sends the encrypted document as

octet-stream(binary).



Sterling B2B Integrator AS2 Edition does push (post) only. An AS2 identifier needs to be a unique alphanumeric value for each trading partner. Both Inbound and Outbound AS2 can use a VPN connection. SBI AS2 edition is not packaged with Perimeter server. The AS2 standard is based on RFC 4130. The certificates are based on X.509 which is also

known as RFC 2459. Country codes in certificates are defined for the English language according to ISO 3166-1

and ISO 3166-1-alpha-2. If customer is sending data to a remote partner that has a very busy HTTP server, you

should consider switching to Asynchronous MDN mode For inbound, Asynchronous mode is also a good idea if you are processing a lot of data in

SBI.
