# `--ftp-pasv`
Use passive mode for the data connection. Passive is the internal default
behavior, but using this option can be used to override a previous --ftp-port
option.
Reversing an enforced passive really is not doable but you must then instead
enforce the correct --ftp-port again.
Passive mode means that curl tries the EPSV command first and then PASV,
unless --disable-epsv is used.
