er. (For the ADTRAN TFTP Server, it is stored in the installation directory
or the directory you specified.)
TFTP is not secure. No passwords are required for client access.
Anyone can access files through the IP port on the server
machine if they know the target file's name. For security
purposes, close this utility as soon as you have finished using it.
There are various reasons why a configuration download may fail. For ex-
ample, the server may not allow the specific filename to be created or over-
written, the specified directory path may not be valid, or there may not be
sufficient disk space on the remote server for the new file (although config-
uration files are not normally large). A specific error message displays when
the transfer is unsuccessful.
Also, a TFTP server may not be available at the configured IP address. If the
TFTP server cannot be contacted, the download attempt will timeout in ap-
proximately 20 seconds. Remember to direct transferred files to the Applica-
tion directory.
Before trying to retrieve the configuration, ensure that a TFTP server is run-
ning on a remote machine. If you are running the ADTRAN TFTP Server
program, the server is automatically enabled when you start the program.
