File Transfer Protocol (FTP) allows you to upload or download a file or several files to and from a 
remote location using a client or the command console.

SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a member of the TCP/IP protocol suite used for 
exchanging management information between network devices. 
Your NWA supports SNMP agent functionality, which allows a manager station to manage and 
monitor the NWA through the network. The NWA supports SNMP version one (SNMPv1) and version 
two (SNMPv2c). The next figure illustrates an SNMP management operation. .
