Hylafax Client for Windows

 

Settings - Active Mode

TAB - active mode

Tab - Active mode

  • Use active mode - (same as FTP server active mode) - active connection to the HylaFAX server. Type an incoming port for incoming connection from the HylaFAX server. On your firewall you have to open the incomming port. If using active mode, only the HylaFax port (4559) and the incoming port have to be open on firewalls.

    Uncheck (default) is for passive connection and it works well in the most cases. HylaFAX server has to open ports for passive FTP connection on a firewall (actually range 1024 – 65535 until a HylaFax server can set "passive port range" ).
