Hi all,

i need to connect AEM author as a Cloud Service to to the enterprise ftp. I've everything I need for the requirement, and I've it running in my local environment.
But I've a problem when configuring fort forwarding in cloud.
As we know FTP in Passive mode returns random ports to perform the data transmission connection. And that is the problem, when configuring "Flexible Port Egress" because I can't use a port range as source ports.

Any solution?
