Functionality Limitations of the Appliance's Mini FTP Server

The appliance's Mini FTP Server was originally designed only for uploading and executing appliance configuration (.NAS) files. This functionality has been expanded slightly and currently supports the following commands:

The FTP server has no support for downloading with wildcard characters.

FTP server access is limited to the following directories and their subdirectories:

When you log in to the FTP server, the SYS:ETC\PROXY\APPLIANCE\CONFIG\USER directory is the default.

To execute a .NAS configuration file, you must be in this default directory and use the following syntax:

put local_filename remote_filename,execute

The local_filename variable is the name of the .NAS file on your local machine and the remote_filename variable is the name after the file is uploaded to the appliance.
