Presentation Transcript

  1. Panagon IS and CS Communications • CS (Content Services) uses default MS SQL Server or Oracle protocols. • IS (Image Services) uses FileNET Courier protocols. • Web Services uses these protocols to communicate with back-end libraries, and uses http or https to communicate with clients.

  2. What is FileNET Courier? • Courier is a protocol family that sits on top of the client & server’s IP stacks. • “Client” refers to Panagon Web Services, Panagon IDM, or WFD thick client software. • Clients send requests to the IS servers and get responses using Remote Procedure Calls or RPCs. • Courier is made up of COR, PEP, & NCH.

  3. Courier Protocols • COR – Courier Remote Procedure Calls • NCH – Network Clearing House * • PEP – Packet Exchange Protocol * * These last two are UDP based. Since many client’s security policies restrict the use of UDP, Image Services can be run without them.

  4. Courier Remote Procedure Calls • Connection oriented – runs on top of server TCP port 32769 through COR_Listen or OCOR_Listen. • Acts as a foundation for request and response sequences, or RPCs. • Connections range from nine frames to several thousand frames in length.

  5. COR Frame Structure

  6. Packet Exchange Protocol • Used by IS Document Services (ds_notify) to notify a client that an object has been retrieved from optical and is ready for display. • Used by clients to discover the NCHServer, unless they are configured to use a “4-part” NCH domain name. • PEP runs “on top” of UDP – port 32770 for NCH, variable port for ds_notify.

  7. Network Clearing House • Acts as name-to-address database for all FileNET IS systems. • Can be found using PEP broadcast at client startup, or “directed” PEP if 4-part NCH name is used. • NCH is accessed via COR RPCs once a client is logged on. • NCH_daemon on Root “listens” on UDP port 32770.

  8. Thick-client / IS Communications • Examples include Capture, Panagon desktop, Workforce Desktop, and custom WAL apps

  9. Thin-client / IS Communications • Web Services acts as a Courier gateway, so clients can stick to basic web protocols.
