RFC 1545: FTP Operation Over Big Address Records (FOOBAR)
This RFC has been replaced. Do not implement against it for new work — it was formally obsoleted by RFC 1639.
Current version: RFC 1639 — FTP Operation Over Big Address Records (FOOBAR)
In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC
This RFC specifies a method for assigning long addresses in the HOST- PORT specification for the data port to be used in establishing a data connection for File Transfer Protocol, FTP (STD 9, RFC 959). This is a general solution, applicable for all "next generation" IP alternatives, and can also be extended to allow FTP operation over transport interfaces other than TCP. This memo defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community. This memo does not specify an Internet standard of any kind.
