The source interface/source IP address set for one connection is prior to the fixed source
interface/source IP address set for each connection. That is, for a connection between a TFTP
client and a TFTP server, if you specify the source interface/source IP address only used for the
connection this time, and the specified source interface/source IP address is different from the
fixed one, the former will be used for the connection this time.
You may specify only one source interface or source IP address for the TFTP client at one time.
That is, only one of the command
one time. If both commands are configured, the one configured later will overwrite the original one.
TFTP Configuration Example
N etwork requirements
A switch operates as a TFTP client and a PC as the TFTP server. The application named switch.bin is
stored o n the PC. Download it (switch.bin) to the switch through TFTP, and use the boot boot-loader
comm and to specify switch.bin as the application for next startup. Reboot the switch to upload the
configuration file named config.cfg to the work directory on the PC to back up the configuration file.
The TFTP working directory is configured on the TFTP server.
Configure the IP addresses of a VLAN interface on the switch and the PC as 1.1.1.1 and 2.2.2.2
respectively. The port through which the switch connects with the PC belongs to the VLAN.
Use the command...
tftp tftp-server source-ip
ip-address { get source -file
[ dest-file ] | put source-file-url
[ dest-file ] }
