The UnlimitedFTP applet or U-Upload applet running in the browser communicates with the Servlet on your network server, transferring data and commands using HTTP or HTTPS protocol. The HTTP/HTTPS packets pass transparently through any firewalls or proxies in the network. The Servlet communicates with the FTP server across your local private network using standard FTP commands and protocol.
When a SSL certificate is applied to your site, all transfers across the Internet are secured using HTTPS. This is also applied to all data and commands wrapped through HTTPS by UnlimitedFTP Servlet. On the client side, the UnlimitedFTP applet in conjunction with the browser encodes outgoing data and decodes incoming data. On the server side the UnlimitedFTP Servlet in conjuction with the servlet container (e.g. Tomcat or Websphere) or linked web server performs the same task.
