Note that the telnet connection must be active and the device in CI mode before
and during the TFTP transfer. For details on TFTP commands (see following
example), please consult the documentation of your TFTP client program. For
UNIX, use “get” to transfer from the device to the computer, “put” the other way
around, and “binary” to set binary transfer mode.
TFTP Upload Command Example
The following is an example TFTP command:
tftp [-i] host put firmware.bin ras
Where “i” specifies binary image transfer mode (use this mode when transferring
binary files), “host” is the device’s IP address, “put” transfers the file source on
the computer (firmware.bin – name of the firmware on the computer) to the file
destination on the remote host (ras - name of the firmware on the device).
Commands that you may see in GUI-based TFTP clients are listed earlier in this
