FTP (File Transfer Protocol) primarily uses two protocols: TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) for reliable data transfer and control commands. It typically operates over two separate channels: the command channel on port 21 for sending commands and the data channel, which can use a dynamic port for transferring files. Additionally, FTP can operate in two modes—active and passive—which determine how the data connection is established.
