System files may reside in four locations:
•
The system space
•
The user space
• A network host
• The standby SRP module
The system space contains files for system operation. For example, the current software
configuration is stored in the system space.
The user space is reserved for FTP server operations and has the typical directory structure
of a secure FTP server. The root or top level directory is a read-only directory that contains
two subdirectories:
•
/incoming—Read-write directory to and from which an FTP client can send and retrieve
files.
• /outgoing—Read-only directory from which an FTP client can retrieve files.
Users can transfer files through FTP to the user space from a network host and vice versa.
However, users cannot access the system space through FTP. To install a file from the
user space to the system space, use the
copy command. For detailed information about
transferring files between locations, see “Transferring Files” on page 287.
