ZMODEM Protocol
ZMODEM is a popular file transfer protocol commonly supported on PCs. The
protocol provides error correction and is faster than XMODEM
and often faster than YMODEM. It allows you to
use wildcard file specifications to transfer groups or batches of files.
ZMODEM offers many sophisticated options, such as crash
recovery, and ways to select which files to transfer
based on their date, size, and/or hash.
Use the ztransmit command to send
(upload) files to the remote system and zreceive
to get (download) files from the remote system using ZMODEM protocol.
The remote system must be equipped with software that supports ZMODEM
protocol. You must have a connection to the remote system that allows passing
all 8-bit characters transparently to use ZMODEM protocol.
