FTP Overview FTP is a common way to transmit files on the Internet and IP network. Before the
World Wide Web (WWW), files were transmitted in the command line mode and
FTP was the most popular application. Even now, FTP is still used widely, while
most users transmit files via email and Web.
FTP, a TCP/IP protocol on the application layer, is used for transmitting files
between a remote server and a local host.

■ FTP server: You can run FTP client program to log in the server and access the
files on it.
■ FTP client: After connected to the server through running the terminal emulator
or Telnet on a PC, you can access the files on it, using FTP command.
