Downloading from FTP

Variscite uses a FTP server to deliver software releases and other files to customers. Recently, Google Chrome, Firefox, and other browsers have began removing FTP support.

Enabling FTP in Google Chrome

Google Chrome disables FTP support by default. To enable it:

1. Open Chrome and enter the following in the address bar:

 chrome://flags/  

2. Search for "Enable support for FTP URLs" and set it to "Enabled".

Downloading FTP files using wget

The easiest way to download FTP files from the command line is to use wget:

 $ wget <URL>

For example:

 $ wget ftp://customerv:Variscite1@ftp.variscite.com/VAR-SOM-MX8X/Software/b2qt/b2qt-dunfell-var-som-mx8x-v1.0.img.gz
