Using TFTP
Commands
TFTP commands are file transfer commands. An access point can act as
either a client or server in the TFTP environment. As a server, the access
point can service read and write requests from an access point client. As a
client, the access point can read files from and write files to any TFTP
server on the network. Both the client and server must operate in octet, or
8-bit, mode.
When executing a script file, the access point retries TFTP client
commands get and put until the command is successfully completed. If the
first attempt fails, the access point retries after a one-minute delay. With
each successive failure, the retry time doubles until it reaches eight
minutes. Once this limit is reached, it remains at eight minutes until the
command is completed.
