What is the file transfer method adopted by FTP?

Editor to share with you what the file transfer method used by FTP is, I believe most people do not know much about it, so share this article for your reference, I hope you can learn a lot after reading this article, let's go to know it!

The file transfer method adopted by FTP:

1. ASCII transmission mode

Assuming that the file you are copying contains simple ASCII text, if you are not running UNIX on a remote machine, ftp usually automatically adjusts the contents of the file when the file is transferred to make it easier to interpret the file into the format in which the text file is stored on the other computer.

2. Binary transmission mode

In a binary transfer, the bit order of the file is saved so that the original and copy correspond bit by bit. Even a file that contains a sequence of bits on the destination machine is meaningless. For example, macintosh sends an executable file to the Windows system in binary form, which cannot be executed on the other system.

The above is all the contents of what is the file transfer mode adopted by FTP. Thank you for reading! I believe we all have a certain understanding, hope to share the content to help you, if you want to learn more knowledge, welcome to follow the industry information channel!
