■ Passive mode
Most firewalls do not accept new connections initiated from external requests. If the FTP server
supports passive mode, select this option to enable passive mode FTP and allow data transmission to
pass through the firewall. The firmware default has the Passive mode checkbox selected.
To verify if the FTP settings are correctly configured, click
Test
. The result will be shown in a pop-up
window as shown below. If successful, you will also receive a test.txt file on the FTP server.

Select to send the media files to an SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol) server when a trigger is
activated. This page contains the client side settings.
■ Server address: Enter the SFTP server address in either the domain name or IP address.
■ Server port: By default, the FTP server port is set to 22. It can also be assigned to another port number
between 1025 and 65535.
■ Host key MD5: You have the option to use public/private key authentication instead of a username and
password to connect to the server. This option requires that you have a private/public SSH key pair,
and that the public key is in place on your SFTP server.
If you wish to Use key authentication for this SFTP server, click the
Get
(Read Fingerprint) button to
request the public key fingerprint from the server. The host key MD5 is a hash of the FTP server’s
public key, which the camera stores in order to verify that it is connecting to the correct SFTP server.
You can copy that fingerprint and save it for later reference.
The max. length of MD5 fingerprint is 47 characters.
