If a TFTP server is available, you can use it and appropriate configuration
files to perform any or all of the following tasks for a large number of
PX3 devices in the same network.

Initial deployment

Configuration changes

Firmware upgrade

Downloading diagnostic data
This feature is drastically useful if you have hundreds or even thousands
of PX3 devices to configure or upgrade.
Warning: The feature of bulk configuration or firmware upgrade via
DHCP/TFTP only works on standalone PX3 devices directly connected
to the network. This feature does NOT work for slave devices in the
USB-cascading configuration.
Tip: For the other alternative, see Configuration or Firmware Upgrade
with a USB Drive
(on page 548).
