You need to modify the configuration of Linux-based
TFTP servers to support some automated features, such as service advisor.
In order to automatically put
a service data file to a specified server using TFTP when a call home
event is detected, the configuration file tftp must be modified to
include the option that enables the creation of files on the TFTP
server. Complete the following steps:
-
Open the TFTP configuration file in the /etc/xinet.d directory.
-
Add the -c option to the server_args argument.
-
Save and close the file.
-
Restart the TFTP server, using the /etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd
restart command.
The following example shows a configuration file /etc/xinetd.d/tftp
with -c option added to the server argument:
| Modified /etc/xinetd.d/tftp contents |
service tftp
{
socket_type = dgram
protocol = udp
wait = yes
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
server_args = -c -s /tftpboot
disable = no
per_source = 11
cps = 100 2
flags = IPv4
}
