Info

OnePacs only allows storage of DICOM objects that are stored via the OnePacs Gateway DICOM routing software or manually uploaded via the web application. 

The OnePacs solution does not require or support VPN for secure transmission.  All traffic to and from the gateway is encrypted with TLS.

Gateway Deployment Models

...

A single facility deployment model consists of an on-premises Gateway for each physical location. 


The single facility deployment model is the default configuration.  The "Transmission Model" setting of the facility configuration should be set to "Standard" on the Advanced tab of the facility window.  In this model, each physical location installs the OnePacs Gateway DICOM routing software to send images to OnePacs.  The benefits to this model is that there is no dependency on a central network.  Each facility that has internet access will be able to transmit directly to OnePacs.

...

A multi-facility model utilizes a single gateway servicing multiple facilities.  The gateway itself uses default configuration and stores to the OnePacs server via a hub facility.  Server-side facility distribution rules then assign the study to the appropriate facility based on DICOM tags. 


The benefit to this model is that the installation is easier, there is less maintenance required since there is only a single gateway server, and configuration changes may be made quickly across all sites.  Additionally, many customers couple this option with a HA (highly available) deployment using virtualization to eliminate the gateway server as a single point of failure.

...

An endpoint facility is a facility that may receive images directly, like the standard model, or define rules for receiving studies that are sent to a hub facility.  Facility distribution rules can be used to enable transmission of DICOM images pertaining to multiple facilities through a single OnePacs Gateway instance.

To create and an endpoint facility, first select the "Endpoint" transmission model.  Next, create an endpoint mapping rule, selecting the hub facility and then entering matching text.

 


In the above example, studies sent to the hub that have a DICOM Institution Name tag (0008,0080) that matches the value "MS44" would be sent to the "endpoint" facility.
