- Reverses the default initiator/listener roles when connecting with FTP. This
- option makes curl use active mode. curl then tells the server to connect back
- to the client's specified address and port, while passive mode asks the server
- to setup an IP address and port for it to connect to. <address> should be one
- of:
- .RS
- .IP interface
- e.g. "eth0" to specify which interface's IP address you want to use (Unix only)
- .IP "IP address"
- e.g. "192.168.10.1" to specify the exact IP address
- .IP "host name"
- e.g. "my.host.domain" to specify the machine
- .IP "-"
- make curl pick the same IP address that is already used for the control
- connection
- .RE
- If this option is used several times, the last one will be used. Disable the
- use of PORT with --ftp-pasv. Disable the attempt to use the EPRT command
- instead of PORT by using --disable-eprt. EPRT is really PORT++.
- You can also append \&":[start]-[end]\&" to the right of the address, to tell
- curl what TCP port range to use. That means you specify a port range, from a
- lower to a higher number. A single number works as well, but do note that it
- increases the risk of failure since the port may not be available.
