Schneider Electric AP9635 manual FTP Server

FTP Server

Path: Administration > Network > FTP Server

The FTP Server settings enable (by default) or disable access to the FTP server and specify the TCP/IP port (21 by default) that the FTP server uses to communicate with the Management Card. The FTP server uses both the specified port and the port one number lower than the specified port.

You can change the Port setting to the number of any unused port from 5001 to 32768 for added security. Users must then use a colon (:) to specify the non-default port number. For example, for port 5001 and IP address 152.214.12.114, the command would be ftp 152.214.12.114:5001.

Note: FTP transfers files without encryption. For higher security, disable the FTP server, and transfer files with Secure CoPy (SCP). Selecting and configuring Secure SHell (SSH) enables SCP automatically.

At any time that you want a UPS to be accessible for management by InfraStruxure Central, FTP Server must be enabled in the Management Card interface of that UPS.

For detailed information on enhancing and managing the security of your system, see the Security Handbook, available on the APC Network Management Card Utility CD or from the APC Web site.
