FTP User Commands: Quick Reference
The connection timeout value indicates how long to wait for a message
from the remote FTP server before giving up. The allowable range is 0 to
3000. A value from 1 to 3000 indicates a timeout value in seconds. A value
of 0 means no timeout (that is, wait forever). If num-secs is not specified,
the current timeout value will be displayed. Otherwise, this command sets
the connection timeout to num-secs seconds.
TRACE [command | data]
If command is specified, toggle TCP tracing on the command connection;
likewise on the data connection if data is specified. If no parameter is
given, toggle TCP tracing on both connections.
