Tftpd

Abbreviation of Trivial File Transfer Protocol, a simple form of the File Transfer Protocol (FTP). TFTP uses the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) to transfer files to/from the router.

Tftp is primary utilised as an alterative (and safer) technique for upgrading firmware. As Linksys have enhanced the Tftp client to provide password protection, it is only possible to utilise the Linksys Tftp client to transfer files under Windows. Linux users can utilise the standard distribution tftp client.

Notes for Use to Linksys Tftp

• Files must be transfered in BINARY MODE.
• Files will fail to transfer if the internal CRC on the file being transferred is not correct.
