# FTP

File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a standard network protocol used for transferring files between a client and a server over a TCP/IP network, such as the internet. It operates using a client-server model, where a client initiates a connection to an FTP server to upload, download, delete, or rename files. FTP requires authentication, usually with a username and password, and establishes separate control and data connections for managing commands and transferring data, respectively.

By default, FTP runs on TCP port 21 for control connections, while data transfers typically use TCP port 20 in active mode.
