SolarWinds created their TFTP Server to transmit and receive multiple configuration files at the same time using multiple connections for versatility and scalability. Many network devices such as routers, switches, hubs, some printers, and some terminal server devices, require a TFTP server to load initial configuration information, IOS files, as well as to transfer configuration file updates to deployed nodes. The tool also allows for the transfer of files larger than 32MB by supporting the option negotiation protocol (transfer size, block size, timeout) described in the current TFTP protocol specifications enabling the transfer of files up to 4GB via the free TFTP Server. It can also be configured to runs as a service to deliver 24 x 7 TFTP Server availability for your entire network. The server is multi-threaded which allows for concurrent uploads and download images from multiple network devices. Additional parameters also allows admins to configure usage to sending only or receiving only based on user needs and in consideration of following the principal of least privilege. The free TFTP Server runs on Windows XP, Vista, 2000, and 2003.Īdvanced Security of the server allows administrators to specify single IP addresses or a full range of IP addresses that can be authorized to use the TFTP Server. The SolarWinds free TFTP Server is a multi-threaded TFTP server that can be run locally and used to upload and download executable images and configurations to routers and switches.
