What is FTP?

FTP is a session-oriented tool, which means that you establish a session, through login, before the ﬁle exchange takes place. The login requires a secure userID and password. Create the secure userID and password via the FTP level or the FTP MIB using SNMP.

FTP on the DMS-100 switch conforms to industry standards regulating FTP. As a result, users can exchange ﬁles between the computing module (CM), ﬁle processors (FP), UNIX workstations or PCs, mainframes, and other computing platforms that have an industry-standard implementation of FTP.

In an established session, each FTP implementation on the connected platforms works either as the server or the client, such that you can transfer ﬁles to or from a host.

FTP on the DMS-100 switch provides the following functionalities:

•automatically detects the ﬁle type and logical record length based on the ﬁlename extension

•lists available active disk volumes

•automatically capitalizes ﬁlenames

Automatic Record Length Detection

The FTP application automatically detects and sets the record length for ﬁles with acceptable ﬁle extensions. The system defaults to the automatic record length detection option.

When the automatic record length detection option is active, the system recognizes the following two ﬁle formats:

•ﬁlename extensions made up of a shortened form of the transfer type and record length such as the extension .bin256

•ﬁlename extensions that are the same as a deﬁned set of common extensions

Note: Before the transfer takes place, issue the BINARY or ASCII command.

Before the transfer, the FTP application attempts to determine the ﬁle type and record length by parsing the extension of the ﬁle. The FTP application identiﬁes ﬁles with extensions made up of a shortened form of the transfer type and record length. These ﬁles are in the following format:

<filename>.<bin/txt><record length>
