Click the Show Advanced Mode tab, if it is not selected. 3. Click the Trace tab. 4. Type the FTP host IP address, path of the remote directory in which to store the trace dump files, FTP user name, and FTP password in the appropriate fields. The IP address can be IPv4 or IPv6 format, or a DNS name. The password is optional if you log in as an anonymous user. 5. Click Apply.
