Yes Brad, Session is timing out and I have tried allowing data-port 20 and 0. Both gave me same results. virtual config ltm virtual vs_test01_ { auto-lasthop enabled destination x.x.x.2:ftp ip-protocol tcp mask 255.255.255.255 partition Corp_Non-prod pool pl_test01 profiles { /Common/tcp { } ftp_test { } } source 0.0.0.0/0 source-address-translation { type automap } vs-index 92 } Thanks, Sekhar - Brad_Parker_139Feb 03, 2016

Sounds like you are using FTPS which adds SSL onto FTP. I don't believe the current FTP profile supports SSL offload of FTPS. You have two options to consider. Check out these resources. They should get you to where you need to be. https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/9000/300/sol9347.html https://devcentral.f5.com/articles/ftps-offload-via-irules
