How is FTP file transfer supported?
An FTP server must be configured and running on the host system you wish to transfer files to. The FTP client can be run from the terminal emulator or run as a separate program. The FTP client has a three-window interface (PC directory, Host directory and FTP connection information) listing the PC and host files using a Windows Explorer look-and-feel, and uses a drag and drop user interface. If desired, the FTP client can be configured to make an encrypted connection to the host, provided the host supports encryption.
