= Overview =


The primary access to bxp software (bxp) is through the secure HTTPS interface. For file transfers and mass file movement it is possible to SFTP into the bxp servers into your account.


This process is not available by default for all systems and must activated explicitly for your system.


N.B. Deletion of files and folders within bxp is a chargeable support event, so extreme care must be taken when directly accessing your back end of bxp.


= Remote Access =


Retrieving or storing of files remotely can be done a number of ways. SFTP is one of these ways.


This is usually done using a secure FTP client such as FileZilla.

= FTP Account Settings =

* Host: 82.195.135.248
* Username: client_yournamehere
* Password: --will be texted separately—
* Encryption: SFTP


= Setup =


After you have downloaded and installed FileZilla you will end up with a screen similar to this

You should get a a few messages scroll up the window as follows

In the middle of the screen, you can drag files from your computer (the left hand two middle windows) to the remote computer (the right hand two middle windows).


You can see the files transferring and those remaining to be transferred in the bottom pane.

Do NOT copy folders. BE will only process files that are found.


If you have any difficulties please contact your bxp System Champion or point of contact in All n One.
