Module summary

A File Transfer Protocol client.

Description

This module implements a client for file transfer according to a subset of the File Transfer Protocol (FTP), see RFC 959.

As from Inets 4.4.1, the FTP client always tries to use passive FTP mode and only resort to active FTP mode if this fails. This default behavior can be changed by start option mode.

An FTP client can be started in two ways. One is using the Inets service framework, the other is to start it directly as a standalone process using function open.
