3.6. Accessing Shares via FTP

The FTP protocol is used to transfer files from one computer to an-
other 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.
IMPORTANT
NOTE: The FTP service is enabled by default for all
shares, but if you have disabled the service at the global or share
level, enable the services as described in section 4.6. Dashboard:
General Settings and 4.9. Dashboard:
Shares.
To connect to the 2big Network 2 via FTP locally on the LAN, enter
in your browser's or FTP client's address field:
ftp://[IP address]
