FTP Server
Remember to “Enable” the FTP service on the status page, when you plan on
using the FTP server.
FTP server Configuration: The standard port for FTP service is 21. If
required, you can change it from any port between 1025-65500. But in
general, we recommended using the default port of 21.
File language support: By default, the encoding is set to English. If you
want to store or transfer files with a different encoding (different language),
choose the corresponding language for the drop down list. In order to
transfer and view the files correctly, it is important that you select the correct
language!
Anonymous: By default an anonymous user name has been created, it
allows FTP users to login without username and password. For security
reasons, it is best to add a password!
Note: To be able share FTP resource you need a router to assign the IP address.
How to create FTP account
FTP allows you to share your data through the internet. An internet
connection is required before setting up FTP server.
Select FTP server and click the “Add” button.
Enter a name and password for the new FTP account and click “Next” to
continue. In the account list, you can see an overview of the existing
accounts and status. Click “Apply”.
For FTP file transfers, we recommend to use other dedicated FTP client
software e.g.: SyncQuick FTP, Cute FTP etc.
Note: When creating FTP accounts, please use only English alphabet and
no special character or space for FTP account name.
How to delete FTP account
In the “Account List”, you can see an overview of the existing account and
status. You can change them at any time by selecting the account and
modifying, disabling or deleting it.
Note: Deleting a folder will erase all the files on the hard drive that are stored
inside that folder.
