You are in: IBM i Technology Updates > IBM i Security > FTP client can allow users to accept an untrusted server certificate
When the remote server certificate is not trusted by IBM i TCP/IP FTP Client application (QIBM_QTMF_FTP_CLIENT) configuration in DCM, the FTP client prompts to ask if the user would like to temporarily accept the certificate to continue establishing the secure connection.
