72 Configuring the Management Station
Installing a TFTP Server
NOTE: If you use only the iDRAC6 Web interface to transfer SSL certificates and
upload new iDRAC6 firmware, no TFTP server is required.
Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) is a simplified form of the File Transfer
Protocol (FTP). It is used with the SM-CLP and RACADM command line
interfaces to transfer files to and from iDRAC6.
The only times when you need to copy files to or from iDRAC6 are when you
update iDRAC6 firmware or install certificates on iDRAC6. If you choose to
use SM-CLP or RACADM when you perform these tasks, a TFTP server must
be running on a computer iDRAC6 can access by IP number or DNS name.
