This applies to FTP/FTPS only. Use passive when FTP server is behind a NAT router. This is default.

A site is stored at customer level and will automatically be shared among the projects belonging to that customer. That means adding or changing a site will be done for all projects. So if you use the transfer site in one project and change it from there, the same transfer site used in other projects will also be changed.

When using FTP, please keep in mind the following:
- Default port 21 is used for sending FTP commands.
- Other ports, e.g., port 20 or a higher numbered port range, might be used for data transfer. This is set up at the FTP server.
- Please ensure that all the ports used are open in the firewall settings to the FTP server.
- Ask the distributor or Norsonic support for the IP number from where the transfer comes.
- Remember to set the correct amount of allowed sessions on the FTP server, especially if you have several reports being uploaded to the same FTP site. Also set the activity timeout for sessions to less than one hour.
