FTP/SCP/SFTP server settings

NOTE

For FIPS-enabled Fabric OS switches, you must configure the FTP/SCP/SFTP server communication to an external SCP server to download firmware and allow technical support.

File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a network protocol used to transfer data from one computer to another over a TCP computer network. During installation, a built-in FTP server and its services are installed. Other FTP servers on your system are recognized by the application as external FTP servers.

For Windows systems, the built-in FTP server is the default configuration and installation starts the FTP service if port 21 is not used by any other FTP server. For UNIX systems, built-in FTP is the default for UNIX systems during installation; the external FTP server is the default only if port 21 is busy.

Note that when uninstalling the application the built-in FTP server is removed with all other services even if the FTP service is used by firmware upgrade or supportSave features.

NOTE

FTP is supported on all Fabric OS devices.

Secure Copy (SCP) is a means of securely transferring computer files between a local and a remote host or between two remote hosts, using the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol. You must configure SCP on your machine to support Technical Support and firmware download.

NOTE

SCP is supported on Fabric OS devices running 5.3 and later.

SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) is a network protocol used to transfer data from one computer to another over a secure channel. You must configure SCP on your machine to support Technical Support and firmware management.

NOTE

SFTP is supported on Fabric OS devices running 7.0 and later.

The built-in SCP/SFTP servers use the port 22 by default.
