AS3 Host: FTP Tab
- Security Modes
- If the AS3/FTP server requires use of the Secure Socket Layer (SSL), select a security
mode.
- Possible values:
- None - Indicates non-secure transfers; commands and data
are clear-text.
- SSL Implicit - For servers that support only SSL
connections.
- SSL Explicit - For servers that support SSL through the use
of either the AUTH SSL or AUTH
TLS command.
- Default value: SSL Explicit
- Default Data Type
- The data type used when transferring files to and from the FTP server. The only valid
Data Type for AS3 commands is Binary.
- Data Channel Mode
- The default behavior for opening data port connections between the AS3 client and
AS3/FTP server.
- Active mode
- Client listens for an inbound connection from the server during data transfers.
The Low Port / High Port, if left at 0/0, will be a random number
between 1024-65535; otherwise specify a specific range. Because this is active
mode, this port range must be open inbound on your firewall.
- Passive mode
- Server listens for an outbound connection from the client during data
transfers. The server indicates the IP address and port number. The AS3/FTP
server will cycle through port numbers, usually a subset of
1024-65535. Substitute Passive
IP Address indicates that VersaLex should ignore the IP address specified by
the server and reuse the command port address instead. This might be necessary if
the server is advertising an internal rather than an external IP address.
