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.

This command is typically used together with a firewall to control FTP session establishment
between private network users and public network users.
