NOTE:

When you execute the put command, a file

file-name with fixed size and content is created on the FTP

server.

When you download a file that does not exist on the FTP server, FTP tests fail.

When you execute the get command, use a file with a small size. A big file may result in test failure due
to timeout, or may affect other services for occupying too much network bandwidth.
