Configuring the remote host logon
Before you begin
• The FTP server must support the FTP passive (PASV) command. If the FTP server does not
support the passive command, the file transfer is aborted, and then the system logs an error
message that indicates that the FTP server does not support the passive command.
About this task
Configure the remote host logon to modify parameters for FTP and TFTP access. The defaults allow
TFTP transfers. If you want to use FTP as the transfer mechanism, you need to change the
password to a non-null value.
Procedure
1. Enter Global Configuration mode:
enable
configure terminal
2. Define conditions for the remote host logon:
boot config host {ftp-debug|password WORD<0–16>|tftp-debug|tftp-
hash|tftp-rexmit <1–120>|tftp-timeout <1–120>|user WORD<0–16>}
3. Save the changed configuration.
Example
Switch:1> enable
Switch:1# configure terminal
Enable console tftp/tftpd debug messages:
Switch:1# boot config host tftp-debug
Switch:1# save config
Enabling remote access services
Enable the remote access service to provide multiple methods of remote access.
Before you begin
