sufficient disk space on the remote server for the new file (although config- uration files are not normally large). A specific error message displays when the transfer is unsuccessful.
Also, a TFTP Server may not be available at the configured IP address. If the TFTP Server cannot be contacted, the download attempt will timeout in ap- proximately 20 seconds. Remember to direct transferred files to the Applica- tion directory.
Retrieving the Configuration from a TFTP Server
Before trying to retrieve the configuration, ensure that a TFTP Server is run- ning on a remote machine. If you are running the ADTRAN TFTP Server program, the server is automatically enabled when you start the program.
Also, a level 3 or better password is required for performing a configuration upload. Please consult the ATLA S550 administrator if level 3 access is not available.
