Usage guidelines
FTP can operate in either of the following modes:
•
Active mode—The FTP server initiates the TCP connection.
•
Passive mode—The FTP client initiates the TCP connection.
When the FTP operation mode is passive, executing this command changes the mode to active.
When the FTP operation mode is active, executing this command changes the mode to passive.
This command is typically used together with a firewall to control FTP session establishment
between private network users and public network users.
