FTP/FTPS Access
FTP and FTPS settings are configured on the
Network > FTP
page of the Web Management
Interface. FTPS adds encryption to FTP for increased security. By default, FTP and FTPS
clients can access the cluster using the anonymous user account, which is mapped to the
SnapScale
guest
user account and
AllUsers
group account. You can set share access and file
access for anonymous FTP users by modifying permissions for these accounts. For more
granular control over FTP access, you must create local user accounts for FTP users.
For FTPS, it is recommended that your FTPS client application use explicit FTPS (such as,
FTPES or Auth TLS).
NOTE: If standard FTP is enabled, only the data channel is encrypted for FTPS connections; the
control channel (including user password) is not encrypted. To force FTPS to encrypt the
control channel as well, disable standard FTP.
Supported FTP Clients
SnapScale clusters have been tested with the most common FTP clients and work as expected
based on the commands required by RFC 959.
SnapScale clusters have been proven to work
with these products for standard FTP.
NOTE: Most standard FTP clients do not support FTPS. A client designed to support FTPS is required
for FTPS connections.
