Maintaining the Router Through FTP Server
Maintaining the router serving as the FTP server
File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is an application-layer protocol in the TCP/IP protocol suite. It is mainly used
for file transfer between remote hosts. Over TCP, FTP provides reliable and connection-oriented data
transfer service, but does not provide any access authorization and authentication mechanism.
In the FTP service, the router can serve as the FTP server. You can run the FTP client to log in to the router
access files on the router.
Before using FTP, you need to install the FTP client. No FTP client is shipped with the H3C MSR 20-1X
routers. In the following example, the FTP client application program is the built-in Windows XP FTP client.
