Step 5 - You are now connected to FTP Server. Else, configure FTP over TLS to connect securely. If you are sure that your data is safe, click 'OK' to connect.

Step 4 - A security message showing that the TLS is not configured will appear, because FTP transfers data unencrypted. Leave the port blank, if there is no change is FTP Server default port number.

Step 3 - Enter the IP address of the FTP Server, Username and Password as shown below. Step 2 - FileZilla FTP Client will be opened as shown as below. Step 1 - Open FileZilla FTP Client by searching FileZilla at Windows search box and clicking on the results. Follow below steps to connect to an FTP Server using FileZilla FTP Client.

In this tutorial lesson, we will learn how to connect to a FTP Server using FileZilla FTP Client.

Step 1 вЂ“ Install FileZilla Server: To install the FileZilla Server, you will need to download the FileZilla ServerВ installer from the Filezilla site as shown below and click on Download FileZilla Server.How to login to a FTP Server using FileZilla FTP Client The administrator in charge of the firewall should always require PASV connections. However, FTP clients shouldnвЂ™t rely on the default values, as this is unsecure. If the client fails to issue a PASV command, the Data Connection defaults to port 20. In the Passive Mode, the client issues a PASV command to indicate that it will wait вЂњpassivelyвЂќ for the server to supply an IP and port number, after which the client will create a Data Connection to the server. 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. Once the FTP client receives a port, it starts the second connection and sends data.

Here, the client connects and sends the PASV command, which functions as a request for a port number to connect to.

Passive FTP: This is also referred to as passive mode or PASV and it was developed to resolve the issue of servers initiating the connection to the client. In an Active Mode FTP, the client issues a PORT command to the server signaling that it will вЂњactivelyвЂќ provide an IP and port number to open the Data Connection back to the client. In an active mode connection, when the client makes the initial connection and sends PORT, the server will then connect back to the clientвЂ™s specified data port from its local data port, which is port 20. That is, when a client and server intend to transfer data, they usually start a control connection first in order to negotiate the details of the Data Connection prior to opening it and transferring data. In this mode, the FTP client connects from a random port (n-1023) to the FTP serverвЂ™s command port (21).

Before proceed with the steps on how to install and connect to an FTP Server, I will like to briefly describe the difference between active and passive FTP as this is a prevalent question when dealing with Firewall configuration to support the deployment.
