FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol, this service is one of TCP/IP facilities that enables you to transfer files between two computers on the Internet. Another great feature of FTP is translating text files automatically; as computers have different operating systems and different formats of the text files that need to be translated. That’s simply what FTP program does.

 

Files transfer is divided into:
