FTP is an acronym for File Transfer Protocol, which is a TCP/IP based network protocol just like the HTTP used to transmit files from one computer to another through the Internet. FTP is designed to transfer multiple small files such as images on a web page instead of transferring a single large file. This standard protocol supports the pausing, scheduling, and restarting of file downloads.
