File Transfer Services

With Dell Networking OS, you can configure the system to transfer files over the network using the file
transfer protocol (FTP).
One FTP application is copying the system image files over an interface on to the system; however, FTP is
not supported on virtual local area network (VLAN) interfaces.
For more information about FTP, refer to RFC 959, File Transfer Protocol.
NOTE: To transmit large files, Dell Networking recommends configuring the switch as an FTP
server.
