and the remote server and inputs the command from the clients for corresponding
operations (such as creating or deleting a directory).
FTP Client Configuration
Example
Network requirements
The switch serves as FTP client and the remote PC as FTP server. The configuration
on FTP server: Configure an FTP user named as switch, with password hello and
with read & write authority over the Switch root directory on the PC. The IP
address of a VLAN interface on the switch is 1.1.1.1, and that of the PC is 2.2.2.2.

download the switch.app from the remote FTP server and upload the vrpcfg.cfg to
the FTP server under the switch directory for backup purpose.
