Using FTP
Uploading files involves transferring them from a PC running the FTP client to a
router running the FTP server, through the router’s Ethernet port. This is called a
put operation.
Downloading files involves transferring them from the FTP server on the router,
through its Ethernet port, to the PC running the FTP client. This is called a get
operation. All FTP clients, including local and remote users, who are connected to
a router can upload and download if they pass user authentication.
Creating a Local FTP Upload/Download Configuration
To transfer files using FTP, you must create the appropriate configuration, as shown
in
Figure 23 and Figure 24, and described in the following procedures.
