FTP Server File Transfers (“Downloads”) Multi-Tech has built an FTP server into the MultiVOIP unit. Therefore, file transfers from the controller PC to the VOIP unit can be done using an FTP client program or even using a browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Netscape, or Firefox, used in conjunction with Windows Explorer).
Page 117
With an FTP client program, multiple VOIPs can receive FTP file transmissions in response to a single command (the transfers may occur serially however). Although Multi-Tech does not provide an FTP client program with the MultiVOIP software or endorse any particular FTP client program, we remind our readers that adequate FTP programs are readily available under retail, shareware and freeware licenses.
