Default: 4096
Buffer size for data transfer in bytes.

data_mode (enum, rw:r)
Default: FTP_DATA_KEEP
The type of the FTP connection on the server side can be manipulated: leave it as the client requested (FTP_DATA_KEEP), or force passive (FTP_DATA_PASSIVE) or active (FTP_DATA_ACTIVE) connection.

Default: 41000
On the proxy side, ports equal to or below the value of data_port_max can be allocated as the data channel.

data_port_min (integer, rw:r)
Default: 40000
On the proxy side, ports equal to or above the value of data_port_min can be allocated as the data channel.

data_protection_enabled_client (boolean, n/a:r)

masq_address_client (string, rw:r)
Default: ""
IP address of the firewall appearing on the client side. If its value is set, this IP is sent regardless of its true IP (where it is binded). This attribute may be used when network address translation is performed before Vela.
