Enter the router's WAN IP address in the PASV IP address field.
Enter the minimum and maximum port range for passive FTP port connections
for each simultaneous FTP client connection that the NSS expects and then
click Update.
•
Minimum port for passive mode (PASV) connections: If your network has
FTP connections that pass through a firewall, set the minimum port for the
port range. The default is 1025. The minimum port range can be as low as
one (for each expected FTP connection).
•
Maximum port for passive mode (PASV) connections: Set the maximum
port number for the port range. The default is 4000.
If you are using a non-default port number, enter the minimum and maximum port
range for your router (such as 9031 to 9040).
You must also enter these ranges in your router configuration software
as follows:
a. Set the port forwarding for the FTP port.
Enter the port number (For example: 8028) in both the External and Internal Port
FTP fields and then click Save Settings. This is the same port number that you
entered in the FTP/FTPS Server Port field in Step 2.
