11.1 Initiating FTP via the Finder Utility

After discovering all interface cards on the current subnet as described in section 8, select the target interface card and then click on the “Open FTP Interface” button. This will open the computer’s default FTP application, which could be Windows Explorer, a web browser, or a 3rd-party FTP program (whatever the computer/operating system is configured for by default). This example will assume that a web browser (Microsoft Internet Explorer) is configured as the default FTP application.

An authentication dialog will appear (refer to Figure 51.) Enter the currently- configured user name and case-sensitive password (defaults are “root” and “icc”, respectively), then click “Log On.”

The web browser will then display the filesystem’s contents (refer to Figure 52.) FTP access via a web browser allows viewing and downloading files to a computer, but does not allow advanced file manipulation such as cut, paste, drag-and-drop, etc. For advanced file manipulation abilities, use of a different FTP application is required.
