Upgrading Firmware by TFTP
When using TFTP as the firmware management protocol, you can configure settings for the AP’s
TFTP client to communicate with a TFTP server. If the TFTP client does not get a response from
the TFTP server within a period specified by the
Timeout
setting, it will resend the previous
request. The
Max number of retries
setting specifies the maximum number of resends before the
TFTP client stops communicating with the TFTP server.
