8.5.2 (Optional) Configuring a Source IP Address for a TFTP Client

You can configure a source IP address for a TFTP client. Then, you can set up a TFTP connection
from the TFTP client to the server through a specific route by using this source IP address.
Context
An IP address is configured for an interface on the router and functions as the source IP address
of a TFTP connection. In this manner, security checks can be implemented.
The source address of a client can be configured as a source interface or a source IP address.
Do as follows on a router that functions as a TFTP client.
Procedure
Step 1 Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
Step 2 Run:
tftp client-source
A source IP address of a TFTP client is configured.
After the configuration, the source IP address of the TFTP client displayed on the TFTP server
must be the same as the configured one.

8.5.3 (Optional) Configuring TFTP Access Authority

This section describes how to use an ACL rule to authorize the users to specify the TFTP servers
that can be accessed by using TFTP from the router that you have logged in to.
Context
An Access Control List (ACL) is a set of sequential rules. These rules are described based on
the source address, destination address, and port number of a packet. Routers use the ACL rules
to filter packets. With the rule applied to the interface on a router, the router permits or denies
the packets.
Each ACL can define multiple rules. ACL rules are classified into the interface ACL, basic ACL,
and advanced ACL based on the functions of ACL rules.
