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]
Azure:
sftp://<storage_acct_name>.<sftp_local_user>[:passwd]@<storage_acct_name>/path
<storage_acct_name>
is set up on Azure. The name of the Storage Account.<sftp_local_user>
is set up on Azure if you enable SFTP and add a local user within the Storage Account settings.
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.
Note
If a password contains special characters, it should not be added to the URI, but typed in at the password prompt.
If necessary, the URI should be URL-encoded: reserved characters should be encoded with percent-encoding.
