Configure the IP addresses of the two sides to be in the same network. In this section, the PC server is
set to 192.168.0.1, and the router Ethernet interface connected to it (Ethernet interface 0/0 in this
example; so, any interface is OK) is set to 192.168.0.2. Both can use the ping command to check if the
connection is successful.
Step 2: Boot FTP service.
You can boot FTP service after configuring FTP server authentication and authorization. FTP server
supports multi-user access. The remote FTP user sends request to the FTP server, which then
executes accordingly and returns the result of the execution to user. Use the following command to boot
the FTP service:
[DEVICE]ftp server enable
% Start FTP server
Add FTP authorized user name and password:
[DEVICE]local-user guest
[DEVICE-luser- guest]service-type ftp
[DEVICE-luser- guest]password simple 123456
Step 3: Maintain the router.
After booting FTP service of the router and configuring user name and password, you can boot FTP
Client on your PC. Take the FTP Client with Windows XP for example:
Enter <ftp> in the DOS window, and the system prompts:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>ftp
ftp>
ftp> open 192.168.0.2
Connected to 192.168.0.2.
220 FTP service ready.
User (192.168.0.2:(none)): guest
331 Password required for guest
Password:
230 User logged in.
