FTP works in the same way as HTTP for transferring Web pages from a server to a user's browser and SMTP for transferring email across the Internet in that, like these technologies, FTP uses the Internet's TCP/IP protocols to enable data transfer. FTP is most commonly used to download a file from a server using the Internet or to upload a file to a server (e.g., uploading a Web page file to a server).
