folder path.
To use passive mode, select the
1st FTP passive mode
or
2nd FTP passive mode
checkbox for the
respective server. In passive mode, FTP the client initiates both connections to the server, solving
the problem of firewalls filtering the incoming data port connection to the client from the server.
In order to support passive mode FTP on the server-side firewall, the following communication
channels must be opened:
FTP server's port 21 from anywhere (client initiates connection)
FTP server's port 21 to ports > 1023 (server responds to client's control port)
FTP server's ports > 1023 from anywhere (client initiates data connection to random port
specified by server)
FTP server's ports > 1023 to remote ports > 1023 (server sends ACKs and data to client's data
port)
To test the connection to the specified FTP server, click
TEST
for the first or second server.
Click
SAVE
when finished.
