To configure automatic transfers of archive files to a remote server
1. Click Backup and Restore under Configuration > System Configuration in the tree view.
2. Under Automatic Transfer of Archive File, select a file transfer protocol, either TFTP or
FTP.
If you choose FTP, make sure that your server accepts anonymous FTP logins. You cannot
use non-anonymous FTP logins to automatically transfer backup files.
Caution
The TFTP option does not work with TFTP servers running on many Unix-based
operating systems if there is not a file in the target directory on the remote server that
has the same name as the backup file that is being transferred. Nokia recommends that
you use FTP unless you are sure that your TFTP server accepts writes to files that do
not already exist on the server.
3. Enter the IP address of the remote server.
4. If you chose FTP as the transfer protocol, indicate where the core files should be stored on
the remote server by entering the appropriate path and directory.
