5.1.5 Uploading/Downloading a Program/File Using FTP
The H3C SecPath Series Firewalls can act as the FTP server. Any FTP clients (local or
remote) connected to the firewall can update configuration files or upgrade
application/Boot ROM programs using FTP. A user can upload/download configuration
files and application programs after passing the authentication. The following
subsections describe the procedures.
Note:
Upload is to transfer files from an FTP client to the firewall, that is, the
put
operation.
Download is to transfer files from the firewall to an FTP client, that is, the
get
operation.
