curlftpfs -o enable_epsv ftp://ftp.example.com/ /mnt/ftp/
```

```bash
# Disable EPSV (default) - use only PASV
curlftpfs -o disable_epsv ftp://ftp.example.com/ /mnt/ftp/
```

```bash
# Skip PASV IP - use control connection IP for data
curlftpfs -o skip_pasv_ip ftp://ftp.example.com/ /mnt/ftp/
```

```bash
# Use active FTP (PORT) mode with specific interface
curlftpfs -o ftp_port=eth0 ftp://ftp.example.com/ /mnt/ftp/
```

```bash
# Use active FTP with specific IP address
curlftpfs -o ftp_port=192.168.1.100 ftp://ftp.example.com/ /mnt/ftp/
```

```bash
# Use same IP as control connection for PORT
curlftpfs -o ftp_port=- ftp://ftp.example.com/ /mnt/ftp/
```

```bash
# Disable EPRT (Extended Port) - use only PORT
curlftpfs -o disable_eprt ftp://ftp.example.com/ /mnt/ftp/
