FTP Service

FTP Client versus FTP Server

The E2E Bridge can represent an FTP client and interact with external FTP servers as described in chapter FTP. Besides this, the Bridge can also be used as an FTP server and accept interactions (e.g. put file, read directory...) from FTP clients. This FTP server functionality is described in the following.

The Bridge FTP Server functionality is based on the open source Java project Apache FtpServer. Using Java Services, this Java application is used as a front end to the E2E Bridge. The Bridge can therefore react on any FTP interaction from a client in a customized way. This customization is done using UML models.
