4. Accessing data via FTP

Note: Not all browsers can upload data via FTP. Those that can include

Internet Explorer and Konqueror. We recommend using FTP client software

such as WS_FTP, SmartFTP or CuteFTP.

The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a standard network protocol used to exchange files

over an Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) computer network. The FTP protocol is built on a

client-server architecture.

4..1 Local access

Enable the FTP Server option. Use any FTP client software or open your browser and

enter

ftp://USERNAME:USERPASSWORD@IP_ADDRESS *
or
ftp://USERNAME:USERPASSWORD@NDXS *

(IP_ADDRESS is the IP address of your Network Drive XS)

4.. FTP access via the Internet

Enable the FTP Server option in the Network Drive XS Configuration. Your router must

be configured as follows:

1. Port forwarding

Forward port 21 to the IP address of your Network Drive XS.

* If you have changed the hostname or the IP address of the Network Drive XS, please use the new settings

here.
