after upgrade up to 271, CFT no more starts despite using same configuration and machines tahn in 241 / use of a proxy

Problem

--after upgrade up to 271, CFT no more starts despite using same configuration and machines than in 241 / use of a proxy

Resolution

--In V241,there was no class for CFTNET and CFTTCP

--In V271 distinct class numbers are needed. In CFTPROTs (simple TCP prot and Proxy TCP prot) and in CFTTCP of partners.

Example:

-- A network resource with the class 1 (NET0 in the example).
-- A network resource with the class 2 (NSOCKS5 in the example) and inet parameter = NET0. This net also contains SOCKS proxy host, port, username and password.
-- A transfer protocol with the parameter net = NSOCKS5 (value used in the example).
-- A partner referencing the protocol and class = 2 in its CFTTCP definition.

Sample:

CFTNET  ID=TCP0,
        TYPE=TCP,
        HOST=host_ip,
        class="1", ...
cftnet id = TCPPROX,
        type = TCP,
        inet = TCP0,
        PROTOCOL = SOCKS4,
        host =  proxy_ip,
        class="2", ...
CFTPROT ID=PROTPROX,
        NET=TCPPROX,...
     
CFTTCP  ID =PART_VIA_PROXY,
        PROT=PROTPROX,
        class="2",...
