Using SFTP
SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol) allows you to access, transfer, and manage files securely. SFTP connects to a
host, logs in using a key, uses the cd command to change directories, and transfers the fax to the host. Once you
configure an SFTP server, you can select it as an Inbound Routing Destination.
