FTP

The FTP monitor performs upload, download, and delete tasks on designated FTP servers to ensure they are functioning properly. You can configure a single monitor to perform all three tasks. However, if any one of the tasks fails, the entire monitor is considered Down. Ipswitch recommends creating a separate FTP monitor for each FTP server you are monitoring, unless the same username and password are used for each of the servers.

Provide a unique name and description for the monitor, then configure the following:

Important: Specify a username and password for an account with the appropriate user permissions for the file actions you select. To upload files to the server, the account must have write permissions. To download files from the server, the account must have read permissions. And, to delete files from the server, the account must have delete permissions.
