FTP/SCP
You can use FTP (enabled by default) or Secure CoPy (SCP) to transfer new firmware to the
Automatic Transfer Switch, or to access a copy of the Automatic Transfer Switch’s event logs. SCP
provides the higher security of encrypted data transmission and is enabled automatically when you
enable SSH.
To access the Automatic Transfer Switch through FTP or SCP, the default user name and password
are apc and apc for an Administrator, or device and apc for a Device Manager. In the command line,
use the IP address of the unit.
Note
If you enable SSL and SSH for their high-security authentication and encryption, disable
FTP. Allowing file transfer to the Automatic Transfer Switch through FTP compromises
the high security you implement by choosing SSL and SSH. To disable FTP, you must be
an Administrator; use the FTP Server option of the Network menu.
