TFTP Tab Field Descriptions

You must have a TFTP server running on any host that you are uploading or downloading files to/from.

Note: TFTP file transfers send via UDP packets. When the packet delivery is interrupted for any reason and a timeout occurs, that packet is resent if the retry count allows it. Therefore, if a very large file is being transferred and is interrupted, the entire file is not resent, just the part of the file that was not received.

Configure the following parameters:

Retry	The number of times the IOLAN will retry to transmit a TPFT packet to/from a
	host when no response is received. A value of 0 (zero) means that the IOLAN
	will not attempt a retry should TFTP fail.
	Range: 0-5
	Default: 5
Timeout	The time, in seconds, that the IOLAN will wait for a successful transmit or
	receipt of TFTP packets before retrying a TFTP transfer.
	Range: 3-10
	Default: 3 seconds
