FTP (short for File Transfer Protocol) is used on the Internet for exchanging files (e.g. to upload content to a webpage or to download files from a server).

The FTP sensor monitors the FTP server's availability.

Parameters include:

  • Timeout: If the reply takes longer than this value the request is aborted and an error message is triggered
  • Port: The port number of the mail service you want to monitor (usually port 21)
  • Username: The username to log in with
  • Password: The password for this user
  • Show Error When Above: If the sensor result is higher than this value the sensor's 'Down' state is triggered.
  • Show Warning When Above: If the sensor result is higher than this value the sensor's 'Warning' state is triggered.
