Problems connecting/forwarding to another AE

I'm having problems attempting to forward to another AE. The log reflects the following for the C-Store Forward-session, I am unable to ping the other AE, and I'm unclear what's happening at this point.

Wed Mar 14 21:13:03 2007 INFO - <2> Sending A-ASSOCIATE-RQ PDU

Make sure you've configured the correct hostname/IP address and TCP port number for this remote AE, or there's no firewall blocking inbound packets to that port number/IP address.

To verify independently the IP address/port number is reachable from the host where PacsOne is installed, you can use the telnet command to connect to the port/IP address:

Code: Select all

C:\>telnet $ipAddr $port

where $ipAddr/$port is the IP address/port number of this remote AE. If the telnet command cannot reach the IP addr/port number of this remote AE, changes are the IP/port number is incorrect, or there's a firewall blocking inbound packets to that IP addr/port number.

Well, I seem to be albe to connect via Telnet, but the forwarding still falls short.

Any other ideas?

What's the forwarding job status?

The Job Status is Failed. Details state failed SOP instances.

Check the PacsOne Server logs under the log sub-folder where PacsOne is installed, and look for the logs where PacsOne tried to establish connection to the IP address/port number corresponding to this remote AE.
