Description of FTP profile options:

protocol

Defines the data transfer protocol. In this case, it is ftp

file-drop-path

Defines the path to the directory on the FTP server to which the result is to be saved. Example: ftp://127.0.0.1/test

enable-ssl

Defines the SSL tunnel usage status. Values: true or false

user-name

Defines the username that has the rights necessary to access the FTP server's directory, for example: test

password

Defines the password of the user that has the rights necessary to access the FTP server directory, for example: "123456secret"

enable-tmp

Enables/disables moving files in 2 steps. Values: true or false

save-passport

Enables saving of data to the FTP server in the Microolap EtherSensor internal format. Values: true or false

save-eml

Enables saving of data to the FTP server in the EML envelope format. Values: true or false

Please note:
1. The save-eml option suppresses the save-passport option: if both save-eml and save-passport are set to true, data will only be saved in EML format.
2. If both save-eml and save-passport are set to false, the delivery profile will work, but the data will not be saved.

save-zip

Enables saving of data to the FTP server in the ZIP archive format. Example: true or false

zip-level

Defines the ZIP archive compression ratio. Possible values for this setting are from 0 to 9, where 0 means no compression, 1 means minimum compression, but high speed, and 9 means maximum compression

save-headers

Enables/disables saving of standard message headers, as well as X-Sensor headers, in a separate message attachment named microolap_msis_headers.txt.

Possible values:

all

Saves all message headers

xsensor

Saves headers with the X-Sensor prefix

other

Saves standard headers (From, To, Cc, Bcc) and also any others to which xsensor settings don't apply

none

Disables saving of headers in a separate attachment.

profile-fail-timeout

Defines the timeout for message delivery in the event of receiver rejection. Provide a value in seconds.

go-profile-weight

Determines a ratio for distribution of messages among receivers. Possible values are from 1 to 10. The setting is valid only when used in a group profile.

go-profile-reserve

Enables/disables the use of the reserve profile. If this setting is enabled and the main (non-reserve) delivery profiles fail, this profile will be used for data delivery. The setting is valid only when used in a group profile.
