# MinIO FTP/SFTP Server

MinIO natively supports FTP/SFTP protocol, this allows any ftp/sftp client to upload and download files.

Currently supported `FTP/SFTP` operations are as follows:

| ftp-client commands | supported |
|:-------------------:|:----------|
| get                 | yes       |
| put                 | yes       |
| ls                  | yes       |
| mkdir               | yes       |
| rmdir               | yes       |

For hosts with firewall-cmd enabled (CentOS), you can use `firewall-cmd` command to allow traffic to specific ports. Use below commands to allow access to port 9000

```sh
firewall-cmd --get-active-zones
```

This command gets the active zone(s). Now, apply port rules to the relevant zones returned above. For example if the zone is `public`, use

```sh
firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=9000/tcp --permanent
```
