Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

To ensure that users can remotely manage files on the local, run the ftp server enable command to enable the FTP server function, allowing the FTP users to log in.

Configuration Impact

After the FTP server function is enabled, users can manage files in FTP mode.
After the FTP server function is disabled, users cannot log in to the FTP server. The login users can perform only the quit operation.

Precautions

The FTP protocol poses a security risk, and therefore the SFTP protocol is recommended.
