Setting Maximum Transfer Size for a User

The maximum transfer size limits the user to a specified number of upload or download kilobytes per session. FTP does not send information to EFT Server regarding the number of bytes that a user sends. A user can start a transfer of virtually any size; however, once the limit is reached, EFT Server will not transfer the rest of the file.

To set the maximum upload size

  1. In the Administrator, connect to EFT Server and click the Server tab.

  2. In the left pane, click the user or Settings Template you want to configure.

  3. In the right pane, click the Connections tab.

  4. Next to Transfer limits, click Configure. The Transfer Limits dialog box appears.

  5. Select the Max Upload/Download Size check box and specify the maximum amount of data (in kilobytes) the user may transfer during a session.

  6. Click OK to close the dialog box.

  7. Click Apply to save the changes on EFT Server.
