Configuring the Address Parameter for Network Integrity File Transfer Processors

The address parameter indicates the host and directory to retrieve the files from. It must be in the format host/directory for FTP or SFTP transfer types, where host can be an IPv4 or IPv6 address, or a host name, and directory is a file path, for example, 10.10.10.10/tmp/files.

For local file system transfer types, the address field holds the directory name only. The directory name must start with a slash. For example, /tmp/files.

To configure the Address Parameter:

On the Processor editor File Transfer tab, do one of the following:
- To retrieve the address from the discovery action scope address defined in the Network Integrity UI, select the Use Scope Address check box.
  
  This option is available only for discovery actions.
- Click Select next to the Address Parameter field.
  
  A dialog box opens, listing string-type parameters. Select the parameter representing the address and click OK.
  
  If there are no string-type parameters, an error message appears.
