Upload Directory – Special Parameter

The upload directory name may include a special codes (%n) which will modify the directory name based on
the Channel number. For example, if the FTP upload directory path is written as:

pr-hd/Class-%n/archives

then for files completing a Channel 1 session the effective upload directory will be

pr-hd/Class-001/archives

and for files completing a Channel 2 session the effective upload directory will be

pr-hd/Class-002/archives

This provides for automatic placement of uploaded files into directories based on the channel number which
was used for recording. Changing directories based on Channel number may help ease the administration of
many incoming files being recorded and uploaded by a single Presentation Recorder.

Directory based access rights will automatically restrict viewers rights to the directory/channel for which they
are entitled.

5.11.16.

Secure File Transfer Protocol

Secure FTP (SFTP) is supported with password and private key authorization. It will first try to use private
key and if it fails password authorization is used. Only SSH-2 protocol is supported. The private key should
be in Open SSH's SSH-2 format or PuTTY's SSH-2 format or ssh.com's SSH-2 format and can't be
password protected.

Use the “Upload Private Key” button to install the private key for this unit.

Secure retrieval of files is also possible through use of the HTTPS SSL encrypted interface, utilizing either
the standard web page or the scripts documented in Section 12.3 of the HTTP interface.
