Siemens Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl Manual page 117

The IP address (see page 84) of the Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl is displayed, as well as
information as to whether Dynamic DNS (see page 81) is activated.
HTTP
HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) is the standard protocol for transferring data on the
Internet. You can use this to publish your own homepage on the Internet, for example.
ì
Activate the HTTP service for your Web server.
ì
You can change the Port via which Internet users can access your data, to mask your
data and protect it from unauthorised users, for example.
ì
Choose the Directory in which the data is stored on the USB mass storage device
using the Browse button.
Internet users can access the HTTP server as follows:
ì
Open the Internet browser and enter the full address:
http://public IP address:[port]/directory/start file
Example: http://159.134.4.16:8080/gigaset_http/index.htm
If you use a dynamic DNS service (see page 70) enter the domain name given by
your service provider instead of the IP address.
Example: http://my.dyndns.com/gigaset_http/index.htm
Port must only be entered if you are not using the default port 80.
FTP
FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is a protocol for exchanging files on the Internet. You can use
this to offer files for downloading or to receive files from other users, for example.
ì
Choose On for FTP service if you want to make data available in the local network.
PCs in the network access the USB mass storage device via FTP.
To do this, open the Internet browser and enter the following address:
ftp://192.168.2.1
If you have changed the IP address of the Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl (see page 84),
enter the new address instead of 192.168.2.1.
ì
Choose On for Remote FTP service if you also want to make data available on the
Internet.
Internet users can access your USB mass storage device by entering the public IP
address in the Internet browser. As Internet service providers often change this each
time someone dials in, it is also worth using dynamic DNS (page 81).
ì
The Port field contains the port number via which local PCs and Internet users can
access your data. You should not change the default port number without very good
reason.
If you use a different port number, active FTP mode is no longer possible. FTP clients
must then be converted to passive FTP mode.
