Passive mode
The FTP client connects to the FTP server, this works great if the client is behind a firewall.

Active Mode
If you're not behind a firewall or can configure your firewall to accept incoming connections then you can use Active Mode. Active Mode is sometimes required when the FTP server is behind a firewall.
