“With the FTP Mirror Tracker service, locating the nearest
complete up-to-date mirror site will take just one click on the
browser button.”

Usage of the FTP Mirror Tracker software on the ISP and
content provider sides will significantly reduce download time
while ensuring the freshness and completeness of the archives.

You will never ever need to use the search engines to locate nearby
mirror server with the copy of the files you need.”

“FTP Mirror Tracker enables transparent, user controlled
redirection to the nearest ftp mirror sites that are exact replicas
of the original source. The redirection can be achieved by using
cache server or by making HTTP request to FTP Mirror Tracker
directly via Mirror Tracker on Demand.”
