Appendix B. Installing Remote Agent technology

This chapter contains the following sections:

The appendix describes how to install InterChange Server components that are used for exchanging business data through MQ intercommunication across the Internet.

These components implement a hub-and-spoke feature called Remote Agent technology--in which a hub site has a complete InterChange Server system, but the spoke sites need install only a connector agent.

This feature is typically used where data exchanges need to go across the Internet and traverse a firewall. However, it can also be used in situations where there is no firewall.
