Using FTP with the BROADway System

The BROADway system operates an FTP server for the purpose of quickly uploading and downloading files to and from the node. Information such as system software updates, system and alarm logs and the node database can be transferred using the FTP protocol.

BROADway has two disks mounted that can be accessed with FTP, these are /FLASH and /VDISK. The former is a silicon disk mounted in non-volatile memory, while the latter is a silicon disk mounted temporarily in working RAM. Information stored in /FLASH will be saved over a reboot of the system while that in /VDISK will be lost once the BROADway unit is restarted. /FLASH is the default folder for an FTP session.

The following log is an example of an FTP session that logs into a BROADway system, changes folder to the System Logs folder on the /FLASH disk and copies the SYSLOG binary file to the local PC.
