How to establish control connection for TCP ? 2. How I can send username and password information to the server over the same? 3. How can I use control connection for the data transfer connection? Regards, Ashu

Hello Ashutosh;
For FTP transfers, you will need a CP 443-1 Advanced processor:

6GK7443-1GX20-0XE0

COMMUNICATIONS PROCESSOR CP 443-1 ADVANCED FOR CONNECTING SIMATIC S7-400CPU TO INDUSTRIAL ETHERNET: PROFINET IO-CONTROLLER WITH RT AND IRT, MRP, PROFINET CBA TCP/IP,ISO,UDP,S7-COM,S5-COMP. COM.(SEND/RECEIVE)W.FETCH/WRITE WITH AND W/O RFC 1006,MULTICAST DIAGNOSTIC EXPANSIONS,SNMP,DHCP FTP CLIENT/SERVER,E-MAIL, DATA STORAGE ON C-PLUG, PROFINET-SS 4XRJ45(10/100 MBIT) SWITCHED, GIGABIT-SS 1XRJ45 (10/100/1000 MBIT)

The following manual and FAQdiscusses the different options for FTP server/client connections, and will probably answer most of your questions:
