In networking FTP uses both ports 21 and 22.
it depends on the server and configuration. Each specific. Default port for me is: 21and 20
20 for data, 21 for control
Implicit FTPS runs on port 990 by default.
TCP has no default port. Individual applications - such as FTP, DNS, or Telnet - do have default ports.
The default FTP port is 21. But most FTP server software allows you to set which ever port you want.
Students and professors will be unable to Telnet to the server or FTP files to or from the server
FTP The service used over FTP is Filetransfer..!!
22
Usually its port 21. Though alot of people fail to realise that just because that's the default setting doesn't mean you cant change it. FTP servers listen on port 21. The data transfers happen on a different port, which is usually done in passive mode, on a port above 1024.
The packet header source IP address and TCP header source port number
Generally port 21 is for FTP 22 for FTP using SSH 990 FTP using SSL
Usually, if you change the port in a server's configuration file, you will have to stop and restart its daemon or service for the changes to take effect. Changing the FTP port would not stop access, butyou would probably have to specify the port manually on any FTP client.
The protocol is FTP and the port number 21 conquerorthecomputer.blogspot.com
FTP is a TCP based service exclusively. There is no UDP component to FTP. FTP is an unusual service in that it utilizes two ports, a 'data' port and a 'command' port (also known as the control port). Traditionally these are port 21 for the command port and port 20 for the data port. The confusion begins however, when we find that depending on the mode, the data port is not always on port 20. In active mode FTP the client connects from a random unprivileged port (N > 1023) to the FTP server's command port, port 21. Then, the client starts listening to port N+1 and sends the FTP command PORT N+1 to the FTP server. The server will then connect back to the client's specified data port from its local data port, which is port 20. From the server-side firewall's standpoint, to support active mode FTP the following communication channels need to be opened: * FTP server's port 21 from anywhere (Client initiates connection) * FTP server's port 21 to ports > 1023 (Server responds to client's control port) * FTP server's port 20 to ports > 1023 (Server initiates data connection to client's data port) * FTP server's port 20 from ports > 1023 (Client sends ACKs to server's data port) In order to resolve the issue of the server initiating the connection to the client a different method for FTP connections was developed. This was known as passive mode, or PASV, after the command used by the client to tell the server it is in passive mode. In passive mode FTP the client initiates both connections to the server, solving the problem of firewalls filtering the incoming data port connection to the client from the server. When opening an FTP connection, the client opens two random unprivileged ports locally (N > 1023 and N+1). The first port contacts the server on port 21, but instead of then issuing a PORT command and allowing the server to connect back to its data port, the client will issue the PASV command. The result of this is that the server then opens a random unprivileged port (P > 1023) and sends the PORT P command back to the client. The client then initiates the connection from port N+1 to port P on the server to transfer data. From the server-side firewall's standpoint, to support passive mode FTP the following communication channels need to be opened: * FTP server's port 21 from anywhere (Client initiates connection) * FTP server's port 21 to ports > 1023 (Server responds to client's control port) * FTP server's ports > 1023 from anywhere (Client initiates data connection to random port specified by server) * FTP server's ports > 1023 to remote ports > 1023 (Server sends ACKs (and data) to client's data port)
