Some TFTP servers constrain the format of the filename depending on
the operating system of the server. For example, a TFTP server
running on a PC under Windows 3.1 may only permit 8.3 format
filenames (8 characters, period, and three extension characters).

Configuration changes will not be implemented until all Telnet
sessions are closed. Loading a new configuration may disrupt
data traffic.
