Using the device as an 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:

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.

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.

To configure the FTP server:
