TFTP
This section describes how to set up a TFTP server for downloading software updates to the
Avaya IP Telephones.
!
WARNING:
The files defined by the TFTP server configuration must be accessible from all IP
WARNING:
Telephones. Ensure that the filenames match the names in the upgrade script,
including case, since some TFTP servers are case sensitive.
TFTP Generic Setup
The following top-level tasks are involved in setting up a TFTP server:
1. Install the TFTP server software.
The section below describes how to configure Avaya's TFTP application.
2. Configure the file path parameter to the directory where the files are to be stored.
For increased security, it is also recommended that you disable the ability to upload to the
server. This option may be not available to all TFTP servers.
3. In addition, you may want to enable the transfer size option (tsize) if your TFTP server
supports it.
This allows the IP Telephone to display the progress of the transfer by displaying the total
number of data blocks.
4. Download the upgrade script file and application file from the Avaya Web site
(www.avaya.com/support) to the directory as specified by the file path.
