    12. Click Download (FTP) or Download Manager:
      • Download (FTP) places the selected items in an FTP directory, and the credentials and FTP instructions are sent to you by email.
      • Download Manager enables you to download multiple files consecutively, and to resume an interrupted download if the connection drops.
        This method requires a one-time installation of the Akamai NetSession Client program on the target computer and is usually the faster and more reliable way to transfer files. A checksum is used to verify file integrity automatically.

    Where to go from here

    Carefully review the system requirements for your platform before you launch the installation program.
