==Pre-installation requirements== In order to successfully access your FTP server, you will need to have a basic understanding of private and public IP addressing, firewall rules and port forwarding / NAT (Network Address Translation). You will need to have a static IP address applied to the computer you plan on installing your server on, a static public IP address from your ISP or a dynamic DNS and also have access to your router console interface. When applying a static IP address.</br> '''Note''' It is always best practice to set a static IP on your DHCP server (Usually your router for home users or Domain Controller in more advanced network setups), as applying a static IP address in the network properties on a computer can lead to lease conflicts in the event of a power cycle on either the DHCP server or the FTP server, leaving your FTP server with an IP address of 169.254.x.x.
