FTP Server
Use the
Access
setting to enable or disable the FTP server. The server is
enabled by default.
Use the
Port
setting to identify the TCP/IP port that the FTP server uses for
communications with the Battery Management System. The default
Port
setting is
21
.
You can change the
Port
setting to any unused port from
5000
to
32768
to
enhance the protection provided by
User Name
and
Password
settings.
You must then use a colon (:) in the command line to specify the non-default
port. For example, for a port number of 5000 and a Battery Management
System IP address of 159.215.12.114, you would use this command:
ftp 159.215.12.114:5000
FTP transfers files without using encryption. For higher security,
use Secure CoPy (SCP) for file transfers. When you select and
configure Secure SHell (SSH), SCP is enabled automatically. To
configure SSH, see
. If you decide to use SCP for file
transfer, be sure to disable the FTP server.
