DES-7200 Configuration Guide Chapter 11 FTP Server Configuration
11-2
11.2 Configure the FTP
Server
11.2.1 Enable or Disable the
FTP Server
By default, the FTP Server is disabled. To enable the FTP server, run the ftp-server
enable command in the global configuration mode. It should be noted that the FTP
client cannot access the FTP server before you configure the top directory, login
user name and password of the FTP server. So it is recommended to refer to the
later sections to configure the top directory, login user name and password before
enabling the FTP Server for the first time.
To disable the FTP server, run the no ftp-server enable command in the global
configuration mode.
Command Function
DES-7200(config)# ftp-server enable
Enable the FTP Server.
DES-7200(config)# no ftp-server
enable
Disable the FTP Server.

In real network, only one client is allowed to access the FTP server
at a time.
11.2.2 Configure the Top
Directory
The function limits the range that the FTP client can access. (For the details on how
to view and manage the directories on the device, refer to File System Configuration
Guide.) For instance, you can set the top directory to the “/syslog” directory. After
logging in the FTP Server, the FTP client can access only the files and folders under
the “/syslog” directory.
To configure the top directory, run the ftp-server topdir command in the global
configuration mode. The no form of this command removes the top directory
configuration and prohibits the FTP client to access any files on the FTP server.
