TFTP is a simple file transfer protocol running over IP that permits unsecured and
unauthorized file exchange over the Internet/Intranet. TFTP is widely used to
upgrade software and configuration parameters for various standalone units. TFTP
is a client-server type protocol; FCD-IPM operates as the TFTP client. In order to
use the TFTP-based features of FCD-IPM you need TFTP server software running
on some of your PCs.
This screen permits you to configure common TFTP session parameters that are
used for software upgrades and upload/download features.
