Appendix C: TFTP Server Set-up
There are a number of TFTP servers available. PumpKIN is one of such TFTP
servers. Use the keywords “pumpkin TFTP server” on Google and you should get
the web site where you can download the software from. Installing PumpKIN is
straightforward. To configure the directory from where you would be serving the
files, click on the Options button on PumpKIN’s main window as shown in the
following figure.
It is important to select the “Give all files” radio button under the “Read Request
Behavior” category. This makes the files to be served without any manual
intervention when requested.
If you want to prevent users from writing files to the directory select the “Deny all
requests” in the “Write Request Behavior” category. Click the OK button after you
have entered all the required information. All the firmware files should be in the
file system root directory. Currently we do not support downloads from files
present in sub-directories. Consult PumpKIN’s documentation if you need more
information on how to set-up the TFTP server.
