Figure 395   FTP Session Example

The following table describes some of the commands that you may see in GUI-based FTP 
clients.

TFTP, FTP and Telnet over the WAN will not work when: 

1 The firewall is active (turn the firewall off in menu 21.2 or create a firewall rule to allow 

access from the WAN).

2 You have disabled Telnet service in menu 24.11. 
3 You have applied a filter in menu 3.1 (LAN) or in menu 11.5 (WAN) to block Telnet 

service. 

4 The IP you entered in the Secured Client IP field in menu 24.11 does not match the 

client IP. If it does not match, the ZyWALL will disconnect the Telnet session 
immediately.
