Using ACTIVE and PASSIVE Exchange Modes With FTP From ODI Using Jython

Is it possible to use both ACTIVE and PASSIVE FTP modes from ODI  ?

As might be expected, ODI is as sensitive to network policy issues as other software tools.

In particular, firewall policies must be taken into consideration, therefore, when implementing ODI and especially when setting up multi-site configurations which use bandwidth overs WANs or extended LANs to communicate and exchange files.

One particular case that must be highlighted is the use of the Jython SnpsFTP method used in ODI Specific Procedures to exchange files over FTP.

To explicitly use ACTIVE mode exchange, the following call must be added to the Procedure:
snpsftp.setpassive(0)
