Multiple AETs

Hopefully a quick question : is the only way of Orthanc being able to handle multiple (local) AETs by (1) setting “DicomCheckCalledAet” : false in the configuration file, so Orthanc accepts DICOM connections with any AET?

(2) I was wondering if an alternative would be something like: “DicomAet” : [“ORTHANC”, “ORTHAET2”, “ARCHIVE”] (which I’ve tried but fails with an error of “DicomAet” must be a string)

(3) I was also thinking of adding an additional entry into “DicomModalities” but wasn’t sure of the settings… Maybe
…,
“DicomModalities” : {
“My PACS” : [“PACS_SCP”, “1.2.3.4”. “104”],
“Orthanc AET 2” : [“ORTHAET2”, “127.0.0.1”, “104”],
“The Archive” : [“ARCHIVE”, “127.0.0.1”, “104”],

},
…

Thoughts?

Yes, DicomCheckCalledAet=false is the only way.

Another alternative is to run multiple Orthanc connected to the same PostgreSQL DB, each with its own AET. However, each Orthanc instance must also use a separate DicomPort (and HttpPort).
