Listing your FTP sites

There are two types of FTP sites used in Hosting Controller:

  IP based   IP based sites have a dedicated IP (Internet Protocol) address and can be directly accessed

using its IP address. An IP address is a series of numbers (e.g. 66.94.125.78) that uniquely identify your

FTP site.

  Name based   Name based sites share an IP (Internet Protocol) address with other sites.

Each type of FTP site is mutually exclusive of the other depending on the type of web site you have. IP based

web sites automatically have an IP based FTP site, while name based web sites automatically have a name based

FTP site.
