We have already tried with the IP we currently have, but what happens when our IP changes? For this we must use a dynamic DNS service (DDNS) if you do not know about this concept I invite you to see this A article, In short, this service will be in charge of updating the IP of our router and assign it to a host name, so that our client will no longer connect to a specific IP but to the host name. If at this point you have an error in the connection, the firewall is probably preventing the connection with your computer, to solve this I invite you to see this Article If everything is correct, you will see a screen like this in your FileZilla Server with the respective connection status:
#FILEZILLA SERVER SETUP FTP OVER TLS HOW TO#
The ip would be our network ip, How to know my network ip?, user that we create in our FileZilla server along with its password and port 21 if your client asks for it. The remaining step is to connect through the client. We must do this configuration in our router: It is received by the router, through a port forward it determines to which computer in the local network it should send the communication with the ports selected in FileZilla.įinally we must configure the static (local) IP of our server, with this we make sure that the local IP will not change and the forward port would be sending the communication to an IP that is no longer being used. The connection would be as follows:Ĭlient connects through network ip. With this we solve the problem of a single IP for our entire local network. Once we enter we go to the Forward port section and indicate the ports that we have just selected in Filezilla:Īs you can see, we write the ports described above and direct them to the local ip of our computer, if you don't know what your ip is, open a command line (cmd) and write ipconfig, it is the ipv4 line. If you don't know it, I recommend you search in google for your router model. The credentials depend on each router and user configuration. Usually we connect to our router through the IP 192.168.0.1 in our browser. Once FileZilla is configured, we must configure our router to enable the ports that we have selected in FileZilla. Once the ports have been selected, we activate the Retrieve external IP address from box, this box will allow us to use the IP we have, as it is a dynamic IP it will not always be the same, so we allow FileZilla to obtain it for us. Once there, we are going to configure the ports through which we will allow the client to connect, the ports must be greater than 1024 as these are reserved for system protocols. To configure this we go to edit> settings and in the left menu we will go to passive mode settings:

For which we must configure the passive mode in FileZilla, this will cause our router to receive a request by FTP (port 21 by default) it returns a series of ports for the client to connect through any of these randomly. As I mentioned at the beginning, we have a NAT router that generates dynamic IPs both to our local IP and to the network IP, this in addition to having a network IP for all our computers in our local network, as you can imagine this implies makes it impossible for our client to connect with our server because the IP to which it connects can be from several different computers in the local network assigned to that IP. To understand the first warning we have to know how the communication of our computer with the network works.īeing within a group already configured we do not need to make further modifications, however FileZilla allows us to make specific configurations per user if desired.
The second warning is telling us that the communication is not made through FTPS therefore it is not secure, we will address it in another Post. The first warning is the one that we are going to address in this article because without solving it the client will not be able to communicate with our computer. » and "FTP over TLS is not enabled, users cannot securely log in" and NAT router ". Please configure the passive mode settings and forward a range of ports in your router. The most commons are «You appear to be behind a NAT router. When we connect, depending on the case, we will see several warnings. Port 14147 To enter the administrator port Localhost To connect to our computer (127.0.0.1) To enter our new server we leave the default options and enter the password created when installing the program: Once installed you will find a screen like the following:
#FILEZILLA SERVER SETUP FTP OVER TLS INSTALL#
On the web you will find more options such as Titan FTP Server, Serv-U FTP Server, among others, but Filezilla is the one that has taken its strongest place.įirst we install it in the folder that we define, we leave the default options and we enter an administrator password. On our computer we are going to configure the FTP server, for this we use filezilla server.
