Setting Protocol Options

You can set additional protocol options that apply to all protocols.

To set protocol options

3. Click the Miscellaneous tab.

4. In the Protocol Options section, set the following options:

a. To download files only in binary mode, select the Download in binary check box. This prevents ActiveTransfer from altering the ASCII text file line endings even if the FTP client requests it.

c. To run events in parallel, select the Run events asynchronously check box.

d. To allow extended passive and port commands (EPSV/EPRT), select the Allow extended passive and port commands check box.

Note: Before you enable this option, make sure that your client supports these commands.
