Chapter 15. FTP Server Configuration Management
The FTP Server configuration properties are stored in WebSphere Partner Gateway
database. In the console, navigate to System Administration > FTP
Administration. The FTP Server configuration is divided into six tabs:
v Event Properties
v Listener Properties
v Connection Properties
v IP Restrictor Properties
v Database Properties
v Other Properties
Start and Stop Server icons are available for all four tabs.

logging FTP Server event messages.

The Listener Properties page lists all the editable properties.
Connection Properties:
The Connection Properties page list all the editable properties.
IP Restrictor Properties:
The IP Restrictor allows you to restrict access to FTP Server using IP addresses.
Click Add to add new IP address. IP address can be specified with wild cards,
namely *, ?, and -. The order of the rules is important. When a client contacts the
server, the rules are evaluated from top to bottom. Click Save to save the changes.
The FTP server will restart for the changes to take effect. If all the passive ports are
in use by client connection, then the next client will have to wait till a port is
available. The allowed range is from 0-65535. Using config.data-
connection.passive.ports property, passive ports can be specified either as single
port, multiple ports or a range of ports.
Database Properties:
The Database Properties page allows you to enter the database properties like Host
name, User name, Password, and Port. These values will automatically be saved in
FTP server.
