Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) is a simple protocol for
exchanging files between two TCP/IP machines. TFTP servers
allow connections from TFTP clients to perform file send and receive
operations. TFTP users initiate connections by starting a TFTP client
program, which generally uses a command-line interface.
The TFTP protocol supports only file send and receive operations.
File delete, file move, and file rename are not supported. Due to its
limitations, TFTP is a complement to the regular File Transfer
Protocol (FTP) and not a replacement. It is used only when its
simplicity is important, and its lack of features is acceptable. The
most common application is bootstrapping, although it can be used for
other purposes.
Embedded TFTP Server can be used to upload HTTP Web pages
or to download log files to a remote PC. In this case, the
Flash File System must be
used, and the Embedded Web
Server must be properly configured.
Supported Features

Access
filtering

Note
