Using the device as an FTP server
If the device is operating as an FTP server, make sure the following requirements are met to ensure
successful FTP operations:
•
The device and the FTP server can reach each other.
•
Configure a user account (including the username, password, and authorization) on the device or
a remote authentication server for an FTP user. This task is required because the device does not
support anonymous FTP for security reasons. By default, authenticated users can access the root
directory of the device.
•
The FTP user provides the correct username and password.
NOTE:
When you use the Internet Explorer browser to log in to the device operating as an FTP server, some FTP
functions are not available. This is because multiple connections are required during the login process but
the device supports only one connection at a time.
Configuring basic parameters
The FTP server uses one of the following modes to update a file when you upload the file (using the
put
command) to the FTP server:
