Parameters

interface interface-type interface-number: Specifies the source interface for establishing TFTP connections. The primary IPv4 address of the source interface is used as the source IPv4 address for packets sent to a TFTP server. Make sure the interface is up and has the primary IPv4 address configured. Otherwise, the transmission fails.

ip source-ip-address: Specifies the source IPv4 address for outgoing TFTP packets. It must be the IPv4 address of an interface in up state. Otherwise, the transmission fails.

Usage guidelines

If you execute this command multiple times, the most recent configuration takes effect.

The source address specified with the tftp command takes precedence over the source address specified with the tftp client source command.

The source address specified with the tftp client source command applies to all TFTP connections. The source address specified with the tftp command applies only to the current TFTP connection.

Examples

# Specify the source IP address of sent TFTP packets as 192.168.20.222.

[Sysname] tftp client source ip 192.168.20.222
