Downloading Switch Software

Enables/Disables TFTP.

Note: If SFTP is enabled, this field will be set to No. You cannot use this field to enable TFTP if SFTP is enabled. Attempting to do so produces an Inconsistent value message in the banner below the Actions line.

Figure A-6. Using the Menu Interface To Disable TFTP

While SFTP is enabled, TFTP and auto-TFTP cannot be enabled from the CLI. Attempting to enable either non-secure TFTP option while SFTP is enabled produces one of the following messages in the CLI:

SFTP must be disabled before enabling tftp.

SFTP must be disabled before enabling auto-tftp.

Similarly, while SFTP is enabled, TFTP cannot be enabled using an SNMP management application. Attempting to do so generates an “inconsistent value” message. (An SNMP management application cannot be used to enable or disable auto-TFTP.)

To enable SFTP by using an SNMP management application, you must first disable TFTP and, if configured, auto-TFTP on the switch. You can use either an SNMP application or the CLI to disable TFTP, but must use the CLI to disable auto-TFTP. The following two CLI commands disable TFTP and auto-TFTP on the switch.

Command Options

If you need to enable SSH v2 (which is required for SFTP) enter this command:

ProCurve(config)# ip ssh version 2
