If the host passes the authentication, a data connection is established between it and the server. Note

that if the host is accessing the server in passive mode, the data connection process is different. In passive

mode, the server sends to the host a PASV response using its private network address and port number
(IP1, Port1). When the response arrives at the ALG-enabled device, the device resolves the packet and

translates the server’s private network address and port number into the server’s public network address

and port number (IP2, Port2) respectively. Then, the device uses the public network address and port

number to establish a data connection with the host.

ALG Configuration Examples

NOTE:

The following examples describe only ALG-related configurations, assuming that other required
configurations on the server and client have been done.

FTP ALG Configuration Example

Network requirements

As shown in

Figure 2

, a company accesses the Internet through a device with NAT and ALG enabled. The

company provides FTP services to the outside. The inside network segment of the company is

192.168.1.0/24, and the IP address of the FTP server is 192.168.1.2. You need to configure NAT and ALG

to meet the following requirements:

The host in the outside network can access the FTP server in the inside network.

The company has four public network addresses: 5.5.5.1, 5.5.5.9, 5.5.5.10, and 5.5.5.11, and the
FTP server uses the public network address of 5.5.5.10 to provide services to the outside.
