Remote Ftp Access - NETGEAR RNDP6620-100NAS - ReadyNAS Pro RNDP6620 Business Edition Software Manual

Remote FTP Access

1. Select Services > Standard File Protocols, and select the FTP check box.
a. Port. Defines the TCP/IP port that the FTP service will be using.
The default port is 21. This port needs to be forwarded through the router. Refer to the
port forwarding instructions provided with your router.
b. Authentication mode.
• Anonymous: No login information is required for FTP users.
• User: Users need an account configured on the ReadyNAS from either User or
Domain security mode.
c. Allow upload resumes. This option allows users to finish uploading a file to the FTP
share if the connection had been previously interrupted. Without this option enabled,
if the connection is dropped at 50 percent completion, the file upload must restart
from the beginning.
d. Passive ports. This port range is required to enable remote access to the
ReadyNAS from over the Internet. This port range should be adjusted to the
maximum number of concurrent sessions you expect to run at one time. If you
expect frequent concurrent access from many users, double this number, as each
FTP user will consume a passive port.
e. Masquerade as. This field adjusts the hostname that the FTP server reports to an
FTP client.
2. Configure the FTP share access options.
Change Share Access Restrictions to allow FTP access to the share according to the
user permissions you require.
