tftp

Syntax

[no] tftp [client|server] listen [oobm|data|both]

Description

Disables/re-enables TFTP for client or server functionality.

Parameters and options

no: Disables all TFTP client or server operation on the switch except for the auto-TFTP feature. When you disable TFTP, instances of TFTP in the CLI copy command and the Menu interface "Download OS" screen become unavailable.
IMPORTANT:
The no tftp [client|server] command does not disable auto-TFTP operation. To disable an auto-TFTP command configured on the switch, use the no auto-tftp command to remove the command entry from the switch's configuration.
client: Use TFTP client functionality to access TFTP servers in the network to receive downloaded files.
server: Use TFTP server functionality to upload files to other devices on the network.
listen: For switches that have a separate out-of-band management port, the listen parameter in a server configuration allows you to specify whether transfers take place through the out-of-band management (oobm) interface, the data interface, or both.

IMPORTANT:

Using IP SSH file transfer to enable SCP and SFTP functionality on the switch disables TFTP client and server functionality. After enabling ip ssh file transfer, you cannot re-enable TFTP and auto-TFTP from the CLI.
