Using the FTP/HTTP Client
The iPocket232 modem supports an FTP and HTTP client through the use of
proprietary extended AT commands. FTP is defined in RFC959 and HTTP is
defined in RFC2616 (available at http://www.rfc-editor.org/).
Configuration
You must configure the iPocket232 Ethernet (IP Address, Subnet Mask,
Gateway) or PPP Dial-up settings (Modem Dial, Login Userid, Modem Chatscript).
You also need to configure the Serial Port settings (Protocol, Port Speed,
Connection Control), and set Connection Control to Modem.
N
OTE
: To initiate a file upload, the extended AT command uses the same standard
URL format used for FTP in Web browsers.

FTP / HTTP Transfers
The "userid", "password", and "port" fields can all be omitted; default values of
"anonymous", and "21" (FTP) or “80” (HTTP) are used.
When the DTE device gets a CONNECT result, it streams data to the serial port and the iPocket232
modem will send that data as an FTP or HTTP file transfer to the server.
