File Transfer Protocol (FTP) enables files between the host to share. FTP uses TCP to generate a virtual connection for the control information, and then generate a separate TCP connection for data transfer. This control connection uses the Telnet protocol to exchange commands and messages. The main functions of FTP are as follows:
Provide file sharing (computer program / data); support indirect or direct connection remote computers; protecting users from affecting the differences between various host file memory systems; reliable and efficient transmission data.
