The following table lists and describes the section, keys, and values that can be specified.

Table 3‒10: Contents of the definition file in the PASV mode
Section	Key	Value	Description
`[PasvMode]`	`MaxInfoCount`	`maximum-number-of-hosts` `\|` `ALL`	Specifies the number of remote FTP server hosts to which transmission of files in the PASV mode will be permitted: `maximum-number-of-hosts`: Specifies a maximum value for `X` in the `HostName[X]` lines that follow this line. `ALL`: Specifies that file transmission in the PASV mode is to be permitted for all remote FTP server hosts. When `ALL` is specified, any `HostName[X]` lines are ignored.
`[PasvMode]`	`HostName[X]`	`host-name`	Specifies the host name or IP address of the remote FTP server to which files will be transmitted in the PASV mode. When you specify an IP address, you can specify an IPv4 or IPv6 address. Use one line for each host to be registered. For a host name, specify the same remote host name as is used in the transmission information. For `X`, specify a value of 1 or greater but no greater than the value of `MaxInfoCount`. If the specified value is greater than the value of `MaxInfoCount`, the specification is ignored. The `X` value on each line must be unique. The `X` values can be specified in any order.
