1 – 60 – Up to an hour can be set.

FTP Session

Possible Settings: Enable, Disable

Default Setting: Enable

Determines whether the system responds as a server when an FTP (file transfer protocol) client on an interconnected IP network requests an FTP session. This option must be enabled when downloading files.

Enable – Allows an FTP session between the system and an FTP client.

Disable – Does not allow FTP sessions.

FTP Login Required

Possible Settings: Enable, Disable

Default Setting: Disable

Specifies whether a login ID and password are required for an FTP session. If required, the login used is the same login used for a menu-driven user interface session. This option does not affect the TS Access Management Link.

Enable – User is prompted for a login ID and password.

Disable – No login is required for an FTP session.

FTP Max Transfer Rate (Kbps)

Possible Settings: 1 – 1536

Default Setting: 1536

Sets the maximum receive (or send) rate of file transfer to the system via management PVCs. This option allows new software and configuration files to be downloaded using selected bandwidth without interfering with normal operation. Using this option, new software and configuration files can be downloaded quickly using the default settings, or at a slower rate over an extended period of time by selecting a slower speed. Based upon TCP flow control, the FTP server in the system throttles bandwidth to match this setting.

1 – 1536 – Sets the download line speed from 1 kilobits per second to the maximum management speed.
