Those who use a custom data port range may find that they have It is for this reason that we recommend that everyone use the default data port However, ifĮveryone uses the default data port range, then firewall rules are much more predictable and If all Globus Connect Server admins pick their ownĬustom port ranges, then this quickly leads to a situation in which site firewall policiesīecome littered with custom rules for these various port ranges and endpoints. You will use them soon when creating your Globus Connect Server v5 endpoint.Īs illustrated, an endpoint must be able to receive inbound connections on its own configuredĭata port range, as well as be able to make outbound connections to the data port range of anyĮndpoint it wishes to communicate with. Save the Client ID and Client Secret values.

Use the same name here that you plan to use in later steps so your users will have a consistent experience.Ĭlick Generate a New Client Secret and fill out the form. The display name will be used to identify this endpoint to users when they access it for the first time. Adding other administrators helps your organization avoid losing administrative control should any one administrator leave your organization.įrom the Add… menu for the project click Add a new Globus Connect Server and fill out the form. Use the Add… menu to add other appropriate users in your organization as administrators of the project. Keep it separate from any other projects you might have. This project will be used to track your Globus Connect Server registrations.

Globus Connect Server version 5 supports two types of collections: Access to a collection is authenticated with Globus Auth-issued OAuth2 access tokens, with data access policies defined in the collection itself. In Globus Connect Server version 5, a collection is a named set of files (or blobs), hierarchically organized in folders, associated with a specific storage gateway. A connected storage system may have multiple storage gateways.Ĭollection: Collections provide the data access interfaces, allowing access via HTTPS (client/server access), GridFTP (asynchronous bulk transfer), and REST API (for advanced operations). A storage gateway is a named, discoverable interface by which authorized users can create and manage collections on a connected storage system. Storage gateway: Storage gateways provide the storage access policies for the endpoint’s connected storage systems. (E.g., POSIX file system, Google Drive.) You may configure multiple storage connectors for a single endpoint, allowing simultaneous access to all connectors.

Storage connector: A storage connector allows the endpoint to use a particular type of storage. The endpoint provides the interface for server management and configuration. Each server or DTN is referred to as Node. A single endpoint may optionally include multiple Data Transfer Nodes (DTNs) or servers.
