Usage Scenario
To upload performance statistics files to a PM server, run the protocol command to specify the PM server with a specified IP address and port number.
If the IP address of the PM server is a private address, configure net-manager-vpn for files to be uploaded, or specify vpn-instance vpn-instance-name for files to be uploaded.
Precautions
Using FTP to upload performance statistics files is not secure. Therefore, using SFTP is recommended.
