ftp

Configure the order in which the software tries different user authentication methods when attempting to authenticate a user. For each login attempt, the software tries the authentication methods in order, starting with the first one, until the password matches.

• Values: Specify one or more of the following authentication methods listed in the order in which they must be tried:

  • ldaps—Use LDAP authentication services.

  • password—Use the password configured for the user with the authentication statement at the [edit system login user] hierarchy level.

  • radius—Use RADIUS authentication services.

  • tacplus—Use TACACS+ authentication services.

• Default: If you do not include the authentication-order statement, users are verified based on their configured passwords.

Configure the maximum number of connections sessions for the ftp service per protocol (either IPv6 or IPv4).

• Range: 1 through 250 connections

• Default: 75 connections

Configure the maximum number of connections attempts per minute, per protocol (either IPv6 or IPv4) on an access service. For example, a rate limit of 10 allows 10 IPv6 ftp session connection attempts per minute and 10 IPv4 ftp session connection attempts per minute.

• Range: 1 through 250 connections

• Default: 150 connections

Enable anonymous FTP access. Guests can login and send FTP requests without a password by using the ftp username.
