To allow FTP Access to your LinkStation, choose Enable for FTP Server. To enable legacy
AppleTalk support, choose Enable for AppleTalk Protocol. Click Apply.
If enabled, FTP lets users access the LinkStation from anywhere. Type ftp://username:
password@IP_address into a browser window to access the LinkStation remotely. Users will
have access to shares that they have local access rights to on the LinkStation. Your network
administrator may need to forward trafc on port 21 of the router to the LinkStation’s LAN-side
IP address for FTP to work over the Internet. Enabling FTP is not recommended unless you’ve
congured access restrictions.
