Can you connect with any other FTP client?

I was able to make the connection. However it gets disconnected after few seconds or minutes and doesn't connect back again.
The logs are as below:

Hello,
Am trying to connect to Azure SFTP server using WinSCP GUI (version 5.9) but getting below error:
Timeout detected. (control connection)
Connection failed.

In hostname i have entered the server name, both with and without the FQDN (cloudapp.net). The Azure portal shows DNS label as <none>. I have also tried using IP address as hostname.
Under Username i have tried just the name and also the machinename\username format.

Am using FTP protocol and TLS\SSL Explicit encryption.

I have opened control ports 5000-5005 in the FTP Firewall and created EndPoints for each one in this range. All this is done in the new Azure portal.

The server is Windows 2012 R2.

Kindly help urgently as this is required in an actual project.

Thanks in advance.
