With a Ftp Server Input Gateway, incoming messages are received on a Babelway specific server and processed as soon as they arrive.

To create a ftp server gateway, select an existing template or make a copy of the generic Ftp server template in the catalogue and following screen will be displayed.

Figure 1.15. Ftp server gateway in configuration

The following fields should be defined in order to configure your ftp server on Babelway platform:

Hostname	Babelway ftp server set as "ftp.babelway.net"
Username	Login or username to access your account on Babelway ftp server. This username must be unique as it will be linked to a specific directory on ftp server.
Password	Password associated to previous username to access your account.

After channel deployment, your ftp server will be available to send messages. You can access this ftp server using any ftp client software set up with the previous account parameters.

When a message is received by the ftp server, it is processed in the 90 seconds (default polling interval) max. After processing, the original file is removed from server.
If you are using an ftp server both as incoming and outgoing gateways, you cannot use the same login for both gateway servers.
