This demo assumes you already have FileZilla running on your computer.

Now lets learn how to setup a connection using Site Manager.

With Site Manager you can save remote server login information for multiple sites or servers, and even organize them in folders.

Lets setup a new site in the Demo Sites folder.

Click New Site.

Then give the new site a name.

Enter the Host name for the new site here...

... then select the protocol and encryption type you wish to use.

Select Normal for your login type, then enter your remote servers username and password.

Once everything is setup, click OK.

Thats it! The connection has been saved in Site Manager.

Now lets check to make sure it works. To connect to this saved connection using Site Manager, click the drop down arrow next to the Site Manager icon.

Click Demo Sites since thats where we put our new connection...

... then click the server name we just setup.

Thats it! Weve successfully connected to the remote server, by using the shortcut we created in Site Manager.

To disconnect from the remote server when youre finished, click the disconnect icon here.

This is the end of the tutorial. You now know how to setup a connection in Site Manager.
