ftp:// localhost:21

Port 21 is the default port used for FTP (File Transfer Protocol), a standard network protocol used for transferring files between a client and server on a computer network.

How to access FTP services on localhost:21

To access FTP services on port 21, ensure your FTP server (such as vsftpd, FileZilla Server, or others) is running and configured to use this port. You can transfer files between your local machine and the FTP server using FTP client software.

Accessing FTP Services

Once your FTP server on port 21 is running, you can access its services through FTP client applications using URLs like:

• FileZilla: Connect to FTP server using FileZilla with host localhost and port 21.
• Command-Line Interface (CLI): Use terminal or command prompt with FTP commands like ftp localhost.
• File Transfer: Transfer files between your local machine and the FTP server directories.

Setting Up FTP on Port 21

If you're setting up FTP server for the first time:

• Install FTP server software on your local machine.
• Configure FTP server to use port 21 for connections.
• Set up user accounts and permissions for file transfers.
