How to Connect Your Push3 Gateway to a SFTP Server
To connect to your Gateway UI, use its IP. Find it by logging into your
account, navigate to your Gateway MAC Address on the left-hand side, and click on the displayed
IP (e.g., LAN IP: 192.168.0.3) under 'LAN IP':
Log into your Gateway UI, navigate to Settings > SFTP/Archive, and select Enable SFTP. Next, you
will find explanations on how to connect using either User/Password or Perform client authentication
using public/private key.
For our example server, the login details are as follow:
Host: 192.168.0.10
User: test
Password: Test123
Using User/Password Authentication
If you only have the IP, username, and password of your remote server where you want to save
your files, you can fill them into the corresponding inputs, like this::
Host: 192.168.0.10
User: test
Password: Test123
Finally, press the 'Apply' button to save the filled configurations.
