SROS Command Line Interface Reference Guide
ip ftp source-interface <interface>
Use the ip ftp source-interface command to use the specified interface's IP address as the source IP
address for FTP traffic transmitted by the unit. Use the no form of this command if you do not wish to
override the normal source IP address.
Syntax Description
<interface>
Default Values
No default value is necessary for this command.
Functional Notes
This command allows you to override the sender field in the IP packet. If you have multiple interfaces in
your unit, changing the sender tells the receiver where to send replies. This functionality can also be used
to allow packets to get through firewalls that would normally block the flow.
Usage Examples
The following example configures the unit to use the loopback 1 interface as the source IP for FTP traffic:
ProCurve(config)#ip ftp source-interface loopback 1
The following example configures the unit to use the BVI 1 interface as the source IP for FTP traffic:
ProCurve(config)#ip ftp source-interface bvi 1
5991-2114
Specifies the interface to be used as the source IP address for FTP traffic.
Type ip ftp source- interface? for a complete list of valid interfaces.
