Usage Guidelines

When you run the tftp command to log in to a TFTP server without specifying a source address or source interface, the source address or interface that is specified by tftp client-source is adopted by default. If you run the tftp command and specify a source address or source interface at the same time, you can log in to the TFTP server with the specified source address or interface. When you view the current TFTP connection on the server, the specified source IP address or the primary IP address of the specified loop interface is displayed as the IP address of the user.

Example

# Set the source IP address of the TFTP client to 1.1.1.1.

<sysname> system-view
[sysname] tftp client-source -a 1.1.1.1
Info: Succeeded in setting the source address of the TFTP client to 1.1.1.1.
