ACCESSING USB DEVICES VIA FTP
The FTP protocol is used to transfer files from one computer to another through a local network or over the
internet. This protocol allows you to exchange files with your friends or relatives securely, as only people with a
user account will have access.
The FTP service is disabled by default, so you must enable it in on the
page.
To connect to the LaPlug via FTP locally on the LAN, enter in your browser's or FTP client's address field:
ftp://[IP-address]
Example: ftp://192.168.10.149
Technical note:
Find your device's IP address in the LaCie Network Assistant
Configuration Window
.
OR
ftp://@/
Example: ftp://ringo:4xtp23@LaPlug/
To login, enter your Dashboard username and password. (By default, admin/admin.)
To remotely access the drive from a computer NOT on your network, refer to
