    File polling: the disk volume must be mounted in some way such that the drive/directory appears to be a local volume

    FTP: when the remote files are available via FTP

    FTP is a specific protocol.

    The file polling port does not support FTP. Therefore, the file polling port could not be considered to be nor called “FTP polling.”
