How to Access the ATS Network Management Interface

FTP and SCP

You can use FTP (enabled by default) or Secure CoPy (SCP) to transfer new firmware to the ATS, or

to access a copy of the ATS’s event logs. SCP provides the higher security of encrypted data

transmission and is enabled automatically when you enable SSH.

To access the ATS through FTP or SCP, the default user name and password are apc and apc for an

Administrator, and 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 ATS through FTP compromises the high

security implemented by choosing SSL and SSH. To disable FTP, you must be an

Administrator; use the FTP Server option from the Network menu.
