FTP

FTP is the other means available for VPort 2140 Video Server to send out alarm messages and snapshots. To send the system log files described in the above paragraph via FTP, the SMTP server should be erased.

1.Local FTP server port can also be changed to a setting different from the default setting of 21. Administrators should have enough network knowledge to change the default port.

2.Administrators must enter correct Primary FTP Server, Primary FTP user name, and Primary FTP password.

3.Primary FTP remote folder is the sub-folder in the remote FTP server.

4.If the remote FTP server’s port is changed to a setting different from 21, make sure to set the real port to Primary FTP server port.

5.If the local network is protected by a firewall to prevent it from initiating an FTP connection from the remote FTP server, you may be able to connect to the FTP server, but be unable to place a file on the server due to data channel connection failure. Check Primary FTP passive mode for a passive transfer solution.

6.Another set of Secondary server settings is also provided for a backup connection.

In either e-mail or FTP, the primary server information should be entered first. If the primary server is not set, the related FTP or email will be cancelled. Note that it may take time to connect to the secondary server after the first one fails, and it may affect some applications when conditions occur too often.

After all necessary modifications are made, click on Save to store the modifications. A warning message will appear for confirmation. After clicking on OK, the VPort will automatically restart. If the Reset network at next boot option is checked, perform the software installation again. Otherwise, the VPort will boot up automatically using the new configuration settings.

If you make any changes to the settings in this web page, the system will restart to validate those changes. Make sure that every field is correctly typed before clicking on Save. If the VPort fails to respond due to incorrect settings, perform the restore procedures and run the software installation.

Administrators should take note that the basic network settings, including IP address, subnet mask, default router, and DNS servers, should be set to factory defaults before switching the network interface from “Ethernet” to “modem” or from “modem” to “Ethernet.”
