• If ‘\ftp.cfg’ is missing or cannot be interpreted, all username/password combinations will be ac-
cepted and the home directory will be the system root (i.e. ‘\’).

just adding the user information to the 'ftp.cfg' file it is not enough.
• If ‘Admin Mode’ has been enabled in the Ethernet Object, all username/password combinations
will be accepted and the user will have unrestricted access to the file system (i.e. the home direc-
tory will be the system root)

.
• It is strongly recommended to have at least one user with root access (‘\’) permission. If not,
‘Admin Mode’ must be enabled each time a system file needs to be altered (including ‘\ftp.cfg’).
3.3 Session Example
The Windows Explorer features a built-in FTP client which can easily be used to access the file system
as follows:
1.
Open the Windows Explorer.
2.
In the address field, type FTP://<user>:<password>@<address>
- Substitute <address> with the IP address of the Anybus module
- Substitute <user> with the username
- Substitute <password> with the password
3.
Press enter. The Explorer will now attempt to connect to the Anybus module using the specified
settings. If successful, the file system will be displayed in the Explorer window.
1. Apart from the vfs folder, that is read-only.
