Retrieve File via TFTP

Use the Retrieve File via TFTP tab to upload files from the AP to the TFTP server. The TFTP server must be running and configured to point to the directory to which you want to copy the uploaded file. We suggest you assign the file a meaningful name, which may include version or location information.

If you don’t have a TFTP server installed on your system, install the TFTP server from the ORiNOCO CD. You can either install the TFTP server from the CD Wizard or run OEM-TFTP-Server.exefound in the CD’s Xtras/SolarWinds sub-directory.

The Retrieve AP via TFTP tab shows version information and allows you to enter TFTP information as described below.

•Server IP Address: Enter the TFTP server IP Address.

– Double-click the TFTP server icon on your desktop and locate the IP address assigned to the TFTP server.

•File Name: Enter the name of the file to be uploaded.

•File Type: Select the type of file to be uploaded: Config file, CLI Batch File, or CLI Batch (Error) Log.
