.netrc file

I had configured the .netrc file for automatic login to ftp
however i am not clear how to give the port no after the "machine" token:
as in, when i give
machine xyz.com 2121
login <usid>
password <pass>

i am getting the error Unknown .netrc keyword 2121 while giving the command ftp xyz.com 2121.How am i supposed to resolve this issue?
