3. Install FTP Client Program or Use Substitute. You should install an
FTP client program on the controller PC. FTP file transfers can be done
using a web browser (e.g., Netscape or Internet Explorer) in conjunction
with a local Windows browser a (e.g., Windows Explorer), but this
approach is somewhat clumsy (it requires use of two application
programs rather than one) and it limits downloading to only one VOIP
unit at a time. With an FTP client program, multiple voips can receive
FTP file transmissions in response to a single command (the transfers
may occur serially however).
Although MultiTech does not provide an FTP client program with the
MultiVOIP software or endorse any particular FTP client program, we
remind our readers that adequate FTP programs are readily available
under retail, shareware and freeware licenses. (Read and observe any
End-User License Agreement carefully.) Two examples of this are the
“WSFTP” client and the “SmartFTP” client, with the former having an
essentially text-based interface and the latter having a more graphically
oriented interface, as of this writing. User preferences will vary.
Examples here show use of both programs.
4. Enable FTP Functionality. Go to the IP Parameters screen and click
on the “FTP Server: Enable” box.
