FTP Commands for Managing the User Space from a Network Host

If you enable the system’s FTP server (see FTP Server), you can manage files on the user space from an FTP client on a network host. Table 34 lists the FTP protocol commands that the E Series router supports. Whether you can perform these functions on the user space depends on the features that the FTP client offers.
