Administration via an FTP/FTPS Connection

FTP

The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) allows the exchange of data between
a server and an FTP client in TCP/IP networks. 

FTP over SSL

The TPG also supports FTPS (FTP over SSL) for a safe data inter-
change between the server and the client. FTPS is an encrypted pro-
cedure for file transfers. The encryption of the control channel and
the data channel is done via the SSL or TLS authentication.

We recommend using SSL. This way, no unencrypted user names,
passwords, and data can be read by unauthorized persons. In order
to use FTPS, you must install an FTP client on your computer that
supports FTPS.

The following functionalities are supported: 

 •  ’Configuring Parameters via an FTP Connection’

 •  ’Printing the Status Page via an FTP Connection’
