Almost everything is wrong here.

That's only for connecting the admin interface to the server engine. You must still set up user accounts and resources in the settings, after.

See previous answer, you first need to create at least one user account in the server settings.

Also I tried to use anonymous but still could not connect to server.

Anonymous is just another user account that has first to be set up in the server, while requiring no password ("Do not require password to log in" selected).

You are trying SFTP, but FileZilla Server does not support SFTP (only FTP and FTPS).
