• Implementation of RFC 1639 (FTP Operation Over Big Address Records (FOOBAR))
This RFC describes a convention for specifying an address other than the default
data port for the connection over which data is transferred.
The commands to accommodate FTP operations over network and transport protocols
are specified as follows:
◦ LPRT
This command enables you to specify a long address for the transport connection.
Example 12 LPRT Command Output
The following displays the output for the LPRT command:
------> LPRT6,16,254,128,0,0,0,0,0,0,2,96,176,255,254,193,123,47,
2,198,244200 LPRT command successful
◦ LPSV
This command requests a server to listen on a data port other than its default
port and to wait for a connection rather than initiate one on the receipt of a
transfer command.
