Configuring the FTP Server
Configuring FTP Server Operating Parameters
The FTP server uses one of the two modes to update a file when you upload the file (use the put
command) to the FTP server:
z In fast mode, the FTP server starts writing data to the storage medium after a file is transferred to
the memory. This prevents the existing file on the FTP server from being corrupted in the event that
anomaly, power failure for example, occurs during a file transfer.
z In normal mode, the FTP server writes data to the storage medium while receiving data. This
means that any anomaly, power failure for example, during file transfer might result in file
corruption on the FTP server. This mode, however, consumes less memory space than the fast
mode.
Follow these steps to configure the FTP server:
