When configuring the "local-port" element within the /res/conf/ftpd-*.xml file to a static value, then the ability to run parallel active FTP transfers is lost, and results in an immediate "425" error for the other concurrent transfer attempts. RE: https://mina.apache.org/ftpserver-project/configuration_listeners.html#active-element, When "local-port" is not configured, then the active mode data-port connections default to sourcing from "any available port" on the ftp server. For example, by default, a Windows 2016 server may choose a dynamic source data-port of 61753, when connecting back to the client at the location already specified by the client's PORT command. Screenshot of test configuration: <img width="640" alt="apache-ftpserver 1 1 1 configuration using static source port" src="https://github.com/apache/mina-ftpserver/assets/160191970/aa61cf66-c07b-46da-a182-9545cc873e99";> When using another FTP server such as vsftpd, we can run parallel active transfers, all sourcing from a FTP server data-port of 20. In that case, we would configure the option "connect_from_port_20=YES" in vsftpd's config file (RE: http://vsftpd.beasts.org/vsftpd_conf.html), so the FTP server isn't choosing dynamic source ports when connecting back to the client PORT location. I've tested this behavior with apache ftpserver v1.1.1, 1.1.4, and 1.2, and the behavior seems consistent among all of them. In this screenshot, my "ftp-dev-01" server has an IP of 172.16.248.202. When running a "10x parallel download" jmeter test, and running wireshark to inspect the responses, I see that the server only sends one SYN attempt from port 20 back to my client. I expect to see 10x SYN attempts. The one transfer succeeds, however the other 9 immediately return a "425" error:  Attaching my jmeter 5.6.3 test, which uses 10 parallel threads to download a test.txt file from the server.
