When the NVD connector is started, it creates a directory structure of sub-directories to hold the third-party files for processing. The NVD connector's default directory structure is as follows:
connector.remote.cve
new/
old/
wip/
During folder creation, the installer will add a default metadata file (fileconnector.metadata) and an ip/host lookup file (ip_lookup.csv) in each of the new folders.
During the processing of transferred files, a copy of the file is moved from the new directory to the wip directory for processing. The old directory is used to archive transfer files that have already been processed. Copy the new integration files to the new folder under the appropriate NVD folder.
