Note
WebDAV stands for Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning, which is an extension to HTTP that lets clients edit remote content on the web. In essence, WebDAV enables a web server to act as a file server, allowing authors to collaborate on web content. WebDAV enriches the standard set of HTTP headers and methods to let you create, move and edit files, as well as delete or copy files and folders.
ip http webdav enable— enable the service;ip http webdav security-level (public | private)— enable or disable access from the Internet;ip http webdav permissive— ignore filesystem ACL;ip http webdav root {directory}— set the root directory;user {name} tag webdav— enable WebDAV access for the user;show ip http webdav— show the current status of the WebDAV server.

Note
The SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) is a network protocol that provides file access, file transfer, and file management functionalities over a secure connection.
ip ssh sftp enable— enable the service;ip ssh sftp permissive— ignore filesystem ACL;ip ssh sftp root {directory}— set root directory;user {name} tag sftp— enable SFTP access for the user;show ssh sftp— show the current status.
