FTP

File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a standard network protocol used to transfer files from one host to another host over a TCP-based network, such as the Internet. FTP is built on a client-server architecture and utilizes separate control and data connections between the client and server.

Field Description
Enable FTP Service Select the check-box to enable the FTP service. The current state of the service is displayed as “Service is stopped” or “Service is running”.
Protocol Check Enforce SSL if you want to use the FTPS protocol for a more secure connection.
Anonymous For security reasons, anonymous is best disabled. If you want to grant access to anonymous users, enable Anonymous and if you want to grant these users write access as well, also enable Writable.
Port By default, FTP uses port 21 but if this port is already in use by another service or it is blocked on your network, you can change it to any other port from 1 to 65535.
Apply Click Apply to save the changes.
