QuestionQ45

IP Services

What is a capability of FTP in network management operations?

  • A offers proprietary support at the session layer when transferring data
  • B uses separate control and data connections to move files between server and client
  • C encrypts data before sending between data resources
  • D devices are directly connected and use UDP to pass file information
Explanation

FTP transfers files between a client and server by using separate connections for control information and for data transfer. Standard FTP runs over TCP, typically using one connection for commands and another for the actual file movement, and it does not provide native encryption.
