FTP Client Request Validation
Description: FTP Client Request Validation
This function is used whenever the System i5 is a client, issuing FTP commands to a remote
system.
Where used: System i5 command lines, interactive and batch jobs can initiate an FTP
client request
Server Identifier: *FTPClient
Format Name: VLRQ0100
Levels Supported: Basic (Level 1,2)
Intermediate (Level 3)
Advanced (Level 4)
Usage Notes/Limitations:
At Level 3 or Level 4 you can implement IP address controls. This will allow you to limit what
target addresses/systems an FTP client can connect to. See commands:
CHGFTPSET IPCTLC(*YES) and WRKTCPIPA *FTPCLIENT
You can also review ‘Setting up TCP/IP Address Controls’ in Chapter 3 of this guide.
Recommended
Setting: Level 4, Log All
Important Note:
When the FTP Client point is set to Level 4, only the GET and PUT FTP sub-commands are
required. The other commands, when using the FTP Client, are for the TARGET SYSTEM
ONLY (sent to/run on the target system).
When authorizing users to the GET/PUT sub-commands, the assumed object authority is
reversed from authorities required for the FTP Server point and the same objects.
See the following examples.
