HTTPS is identical to HTTP except all communications are secured using SSL. One benefit to adding an HTTP listener to a domain is the availability of the Web Client, which allows users to transfer files to and from your file server without the need for a standalone client. It is also a simple method for downloading and transferring files. HTTP is the protocol used to browse websites.

It performs all protocol communications and data transfers over the same port eliminating the need to open multiple ports in firewalls (as is commonly required when using FTP). SFTP is a secure method of transferring files through a secure shell session. However, SSL connections are explicitly supported through the use of the AUTH command. Traditionally, FTP is handled in plain-text. (up to 10,000 configured users and 250 simultaneous transfers)įTP is the traditional protocol for transferring files over the Internet. (up to 500 configured users and 25 simultaneous transfers) SolarWinds strongly suggests using the recommended hardware configuration to avoid potential performance issues caused by a heavy load or custom configurations.
