  3. FTP – the basics File Transfer Protocol (FTP) FTP is a protocol (In general protocol means sets of rules or guidelines that need to be followed. In communication it is called TCP/IP protocol) used for sending files between computers and over the internet. The protocol standard describes how this file transfer should take place. How does it happen? The server will be running a "FTP server" application that is constantly listening for transfer requests. Your computer will have an 'FTP client' that sets up the connection to the server. Normally user-name and password are required to access the server. Once the connection is set up, you can either download files from the server or upload file to the server.
