FTP on Non-standard Ports



Some FTP servers use an alternate port for their control connection. By default, VPN-1/FireWall-1 knows how to handle FTP control connections only on port 21. To allow FTP using an alternate port, create a new service of type TCP. In the advanced configuration for the service, set the protocol type to FTP. Use this new service in a rule.

What port number do you give the new protocol? 21? Or do we specify the high ports range? I am lost with this one. Help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

FTP is a protocol of type TCP, which means it's going to get a protocol number of 6.
