Network URI specification

All network locations are specified as a URI, for example download locations, backup destinations, notification destinations, and so on.

The following list shows the URI syntax:

• ftp: ftp://user[:password]@host[:port][/path]
• http: http(s)://user[:password]@host[:port]/path
• file: file://{/path}+[/filename]
• sftp: sftp://user[:password]@host[:port][/path]
• scp: scp://[user@]host[:port]:[/path]
• email: mailto:user@host
• snmpv2: snmp://community@host[:port]
• snmpv3: snmp://user:auth:password]@host[:port] ... minimum auth/password

The [password] in the URI is optional when authentication is set up. Refer to SSH key management.

If a password contains special characters, it should not be added to the URI, but typed in at the password prompt.
