between local and remote computers. TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol)
is a relatively slow, low-security protocol that requires no user name or
password.
b. In the Default File Server entry field, enter the IP address of the server where
the access point should look for FTP files.
c. In the FTP Directory entry field, enter the directory on the server where FTP
files are located.
d. In the FTP User Name entry field, enter the user name assigned to the FTP
server. If you selected TFTP, you can leave this field blank.
