Thats why passive FTP is used instead. Active FTP won't work in most networks now. NAT is done at the border firewall/router
Besides, some protocols like FTP (in PORT mode) initiate the data connection from the _server_ end to the client even though the initial connection and request of the file has come from the client. So "customer initiated data" is a meaningless concept.
