AC30 EtherNet IP Option
FTP Server
The option has a built-in FTP server enabling access to the FLASH-
based file system which hosts 2MByte of non-volatile storage.
To enable the FTP server the parameter
0205 Option FTP Enable
must be set to TRUE. To access the file system an FTP client is
required such as Windows Explorer. Enter the IP address in to the
address bar, for example ftp://192.168.1.57
By default no files are stored on the file system (the built-in web files
are virtual files).
User Accounts
User accounts are stored in the configuration file ‘\ftp.cfg’. This file
holds the usernames, passwords and home directory for all users.
Usernames and password must not exceed 15 characters in length.
Users are not able to access files outside of their home directory.
File format:
Username1:Password1:Homedir1
Username2:Password2:Homedir2
…
UsernameN:PasswordN:HomedirN
If there is no \ftp.cfg’ file or if the parameter
0206 Option FTP Admin
Mode
parameter is set to TRUE then there will be unrestricted access
to the file system.
