1.1.4 FTP Configuration: A Switch Functioning as an FTP Client
The function for a switch to function as an FTP client is implemented by an application
module in the switch. Thus a switch can function as an FTP client without any
configuration. You can perform FTP-related operations (such as creating/removing a
directory) by executing FTP client commands on a switch functioning as an FTP client.
