Keywords
|
HOST |
Nominate a FTP server to connect to. The FTP server can be specified as an IP address, nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn:port, or a domain name. |
|
SECURE |
Indicates whether a secure control channel is required to protect FTP command information like user and password. The default value *NO indicates a plain data connection is to be used. A value of *YES initially connects to the remote FTP server using a plain socket then changes to SSL/TLS connection using the AUTH subcommand. A value of *IMPLICIT indicates a secure control channel directly to the SSL/TLS FTP server is required. |
|
PROTECTION |
The default option *NO indicates a clear data channel is required. The alternative value, *YES, indicates the data channel is to be secure. |
|
PORT_ADDRESS |
The local IP address used by the PORT subcommand. This keyword is not typically used but is available to indicate the IP address has been dynamically allocated, such as a PPP dialup connect after the JSM has been started. |
|
ENCODING |
The remote server path encoding. The default option is *DEFAULT. |
|
TIMEOUT |
The host connection timeout in milliseconds. The default is 0, which is an infinite timeout or an operating system timeout. |
