Prerequisites

The host/serial device must ensure the validity of the following details before using FTP client:
1.
If the host device wants to use domain names instead of an IP address for a remote server,
then the following parameters must be set:
•
Default Gateway should be configured to a valid IP address.
•
DNS should be enabled.
•
DNS address should be configured to a valid ip-address.
2.
If you want the host device to use automatic authentication to a particular FTP server, then
set the following parameters:
•
Mandatory: The device name should be configured to a valid the IP address/host-
name. The login name should be set to a valid user name.
•
Optional: The password can be optionally configured as the password
corresponding to the user name.
•
Optional: The account password can be optionally configured as the password
corresponding to the user name. This is an extra authentication that can be used
when an FTP server asks for an account password.

Notes:
•
If a value is configured as the default, the FTP client tries to authenticate for every FTP
server.
•
If the above mandatory fields are not configured or if the configured device and the server
specified in the command line are different, MultiConnect IP prompts the user to enter
login name and password.
