4.5.3 FTP/TFTP Upgrade
4.5.3.1 Introduction to FTP/TFTP
FTP (File Transfer Protocol)/TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) are both file transfer
protocols that belong to the fourth layer (application layer) of the TCP/IP protocol stack, used
for transferring files between hosts, hosts and switches. Both of them transfer files in a
client-server model. Their differences are listed below.
FTP builds upon TCP to provide reliable connection-oriented data stream transfer service.
However, it does not provide file access authorization and uses simple authentication
mechanism (transfers username and password in plain text for authentication). When using
FTP to transfer files, two connections need to be established between the client and the server:
a management connection and a data connection. A transfer request should be sent by the
FTP client to establish management connection on port 21 in the server, and negotiate a data
connection through the management connection.
