Terminal Server User Guide, Version 3.3
Configure the following parameters:
TFTP Tab Field Descriptions
You must have a TFTP server running on any host that you are uploading or downloading files
to/from.
Configure the following parameters:
TFTP Host
The host that the Terminal Server will be getting the Message of the Day path
name from.
Filename
The path and file name, relative to the default path of your TFTP server
software, of the file that contains a string that is displayed when a user connects
to the
Terminal Server
. This is the name of a file on the
Terminal Server
that
contains the contents that will be used for the MOTD. The
Terminal Server
will look for the file internally (it must already be downloaded), if it is not
there, it will connect to the specified host for the file.
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.
Retry
The number of times the Terminal Server will retry to transmit a TPFT packet
to/from a host when no response is received. A value of
0
(zero) means that the
Terminal Server will not attempt a retry should TFTP fail.
Range:
0-5
Default:
5
Timeout
The time, in seconds, that the Terminal Server will wait for a successful
transmit or receipt of TFTP packets before retrying a TFTP transfer.
Range:
3-10
Default:
3 seconds
