D-Link DNS-340L User Manual - Page 213

Section 4 - Configuration Application Management FTP server The Application Management section allows you to configure many services for your DNS-340L. The server and service settings include: FTP server, AFP, NFS, multimedia services, and Syslog Server. Let's begin by looking at configuration options for the FTP server. Max User: Set the maximum amount of users that can connect to the FTP server. Idle Time: Set the amount of time a user can remain idle before being disconnected. Port: Set the FTP port. The default port is 21. If you are behind a router, you will need to forward the FTP port from the router to the device. Additional filtering and firewall settings may need to be modified on your router to allow FTP Access to the device from the Internet. Once the port has been forwarded on the router, users from the Internet will access the FTP server through the WAN IP address of the router. Passive Mode: In situations where the device is behind a firewall and unable to accept incoming TCP connections, passive mode must be used. Client Language: Most standard FTP clients like Windows FTP, only support Western European code page when transferring files. Support has been added for non standard FTP clients that are capable of supporting these character sets. D-Link ShareCenter DNS-340L User Manual 211
