How do I connect to server using ftp

How do I connect to a server using ftp because I am getting an error message as below when I use "ftpobj=ftp("ftp.ngdc.noaa.gov")":

>> ftpobj=ftp("ftp.ngdc.noaa.gov")
Error using matlab.io.internal.ftp.FTPHelper/connect (line 22)
Could not open a connection to "ftp.ngdc.noaa.gov", port "21".

Error in matlab.io.internal.ftp.FTPHelper (line 37)
connect(obj);

Error in matlab.io.internal.ftp.FTP (line 79)
h.helper = matlab.io.internal.ftp.FTPHelper(host, username, password, ...
    
Error in ftp (line 17)
h = matlab.io.internal.ftp.FTP(host, varargin{:});
