C Installing and Using TFTP

Overview: What Is TFTP?

TFTP, the Trivial File Transfer Protocol, allows the HP Server Remote

Management Card to access boot floppy images and new firmware images stored

at a LAN or modem-connected computer. TFTP is built on top of TCP/IP and is

functionally a subset of FTP. As its name indicates, this protocol is used to

transfer data between a "TFTP server" and either the HP Server Remote

Management Card or some other device that acts as the "TFTP client."

NOTE TFTP and the HP Server Remote Management Card depend on

the TCP/IP protocol. If you are able to view the HP Server

Remote Management Card user interface on your remote

computer, this protocol is already functioning correctly. If not,

modification of either your browser or networking

environment may be required.

The HP Server Remote Management Card uses the TFTP service to:

• Access boot floppy images that allow administrators to help diagnose HP

Server problems and update the server BIOS.

• Update the HP Server Remote Management Card firmware.

TFTP file transfer consists of client-side and server-side components. Because the

HP Server Remote Management Card has the client TFTP service built into its

firmware, you can use TFTP to transfer either firmware images or boot images

from either a local or a remote computer running a TFTP server program, see

Figure C-1.
