Scenario 7 - Sending a File to the FTP Server

This scenario describes how to send a file to the FTP server:

a) With Automatic Authentication enabled by specifying a few authentication details: IP address of

the device and valid login name

.

b) Data connection in ACTIVE mode.

Description

The MultiConnect IP establishes the control connection to the specified FTP
server, automatically checks for the configured values, and logs into the FTP
server. If the user is valid, the MultiConnect IP prompts the host device to enter
the Password as below:

Password: ****

If successfully logged in, the MultiConnect IP sends a message and prompts the
host device to enter Filename and Filesize and sends a message as shown here:

Connected
Filename: filename
Filesize: filesize
Enter data. To terminate press Ctrl + C with 3 seconds delay.
------ File Transfer ----

When the specified filesize is reached, the FTP session responds with the OK
message.
By default the data connection is in active mode. The client sets the data transfer
mode as ‘BINARY/IMAGE’ during the file transfer.

Note:

If the '-p' option is specified in the command, the data connection will be in

passive mode
