Configuring File Transfer Protocol (FTP) servers

Setting class limits

To configure limits for a class using the FTP Server Manager:

  1. Select View -> Class limits.

  2. To define new limits for a class, select Edit -> Add.

    To modify existing limits for a class, click on the class from those displayed, then select Edit -> Modify.

  3. Enter the following information for the class:

    Class
    The name of the class to which the limit will be applied.

    Max users
    The maximum number of users in this class who can gain access at the same time. Enter the value -1 or select Unlimited if you do not want to restrict the number.

    Times
    The days and times at which the limit will be applied. To edit these, click on Select. Enter the time range and day, then click on Add to add it to the list of access times. Repeat this for each access time range you require, then click on OK to accept.

    Message file
    (Optional) The pathname of a message file that will be displayed to a user if they are denied access. Click on Select to choose the file using a file browser.

  4. Click on OK to accept.


NOTE: If you define more than one limit for a class, the FTP server will use the first limit listed that is applicable to the time at which a user attempts to access the system. To change the position of a limit, select it from those listed and use View -> Raise and View -> Lower to move it up or down the list.
