z For more information about the local-user, password, service-type ftp, and
authorization-attribute commands, refer to AAA Command in the Security Volume.
z When the device serves as the FTP server, if the client is to perform the write operations (upload,
delete, create, and delete for example) on the device’s file system, the FTP login users must be
level 3 users; if the client is to perform other operations, for example, read operation, the device
has no restriction on the user level of the FTP login users, that is, any level from 0 to 3 is allowed.
FTP Server Configuration Example
Single Device Upgrade
Network requirements
z As shown in Figure 12-4, use Device as an FTP server, and the PC as the FTP client. Their IP
addresses are 1.2.1.1/16 and 1.1.1.1/16 respectively. An available route exists between Device
and PC.
z PC keeps the updated startup file of the device. Use FTP to upgrade the device and back up the
configuration file.
z Set the username to ftp and the password to pwd for the FTP client to log in to the FTP server.
