Characteristic data for FTP / FTPS mode
TCP connections for FTP
FTP actions are transferred from the CP over TCP connections. The following characteristics
apply:
●

You can use a maximum of 32 FTP sessions.
Up to 2 TCP connections are occupied per activated FTP session (1 control connection
and 1 data connection).
●
FTP server mode
You can operate a maximum of 16 FTP sessions at the same time.
Up to 2 TCP connections are occupied per activated FTP session (1 control connection
and 1 data connection).
Program block FTP_CMD for FTP client mode
For communication, use the program block FTP_CMD.
The block execution time in FTP depends on the reaction times of the partner and the length
of the user data. A generally valid statement is therefore not possible.
