7.14 TFTP Server
Configure the NAS as a TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) server for configuration
management of network devices and remote network booting of computers for system
imaging or recovery. TFTP is a file transfer protocol with the functionality of a very

to using a standard FTP client.
Follow these steps to use this feature:
1. Select "Enable TFTP Server".
2. The default UDP port for file transfer is 69 and you should only change it if
necessary.
3. Specify a folder on the NAS as the root directory of the TFTP server.
4. Enable TFTP Logging: Enable this option and specify the directory to save the TFTP
log file (opentftpd.log.) It is recommended to view the log file using Microsoft Excel

5. Assign read only or full access to the clients.

"Anywhere" to allow any TFTP client access.
7. Click "Apply".
