Managing Directories On The Ftp Server - HP 830 Series Configuration Manual

IP address is used as the source IP address for the FTP packets sent by the device. The source interface
and source IP address settings overwrite each other.
The ftp client source command setting applies to all FTP sessions. When you set up an FTP session using
the ftp or ftp ipv6 command, you can also specify a different source IP address for the FTP session.
IMPORTANT:
If you specify a source interface for FTP packets, make sure the interface has been assigned a primary IP
address. Otherwise, the FTP connection cannot be established.
To establish an IPv4 FTP connection:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Specify a source IP address
for outgoing FTP packets.
3. Return to user view.
4. Log in to the remote FTP
server.
To establish an IPv6 FTP connection, perform one of the following tasks:
Task
