Hi all,

i need to connect AEM author as a Cloud Service to to the enterprise ftp. I've everything I need for the requirement, and I've it running in my local environment.
But I've a problem when configuring fort forwarding in cloud.
As we know FTP in Passive mode returns random ports to perform the data transmission connection. And that is the problem, when configuring "Flexible Port Egress" because I can't use a port range as source ports.

Any solution?

Did you try SFTP instead of FTP ?

FTP may use random port,

Connecting AEM as a Cloud Service to an FTP server can be challenging due to the nature of FTP's passive mode and the restrictions on port forwarding in many cloud environments.
