.SH NAME

CURLOPT_FTP_USE_EPSV \- use EPSV for FTP

.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
.nf
|
|
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
|

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Pass \fIepsv\fP as a long. If the value is 1, it tells curl to use the EPSV
|
|
|
|
command when doing passive FTP downloads (which it does by default). Using
|
|
|
|
EPSV means that libcurl first attempts to use the EPSV command before using
|
|
|
|
PASV. If you pass zero to this option, it does not use EPSV, only plain PASV.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The EPSV command is a slightly newer addition to the FTP protocol than PASV
|
|
|
|
and is the preferred command to use since it enables IPv6 to be used. Old FTP
|
|
|
|
servers might not support it, which is why libcurl has a fallback mechanism.
|
|
|
|
Sometimes that fallback is not enough and then this option might come handy.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the server is an IPv6 host, this option has no effect.
