FTP server
— a feature that allows you to use a Wi-Fi device to store files and access them via FTP.This function differs from the file server (see the relevant paragraph) primarily by the supported protocol. The FTP standard is now a common one, it is widely used both in local networks and on the Internet, and is supported by almost any Internet browser (whereas a file server can use specialized standards that require the installation of additional software). Accordingly, it is worth choosing a device with this function if you plan to organize file storage with the simplest and most convenient access, including via the Internet. At the same time, we note that “simple” does not mean “uncontrolled”: FTP allows you to set a login and password for accessing files, as well as encrypt transmitted data.
As for the files themselves, they can be stored both on the built-in storage of a network device, and on a drive connected to it, like a flash drive or external HDD.
