The Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) is a
basic communications protocol used to transmit files between nodes
on a network. It is implemented on top of the Internet User Datagram
Protocol (UDP), so it can be used across networks that support UDP.
On the HP 3000, the TFTP daemon
tftpd transfers
boot files to or from the host HP 3000 to remote nodes on the network.
This permits a network device to get the information it needs to
start itself.
This chapter describes:
How to start tftpd
once the server has been configured.
Implementation differences between tftpd
for MPE/iX and tftpd
for HP-UX.
