  • Hi,
    For first variant :
    There is no proper documentation to follow the steps. 

    I need to extract data from DB2 which sat beside firewall system (AWS) . 

    1)How to Crete metadata connection?

    Second variant:

    Can you please suggest best method to implement out side?

  • first variant


  • really self documented, so it must not be a problem
    metadata connection - You can create with this method, but not test and not retrieve structure, 
    because tunnel will be created in feature (on run stage) but connection You create before tunnel

  • second variant - best choice, talk with Your system (network) admin, for them it regular tasks and depending from Your environment it could be different. 



  • I use on Mac - SSH Tunnel (name of program)
    on Linux it could be -  http://www.revsys.com/writings/quicktips/ssh-tunnel.html
    On Windows -  https://www.bitvise.com/port-forwarding
    this is just examples, in which direction search.
