Three types of files can be downloaded to the AP from a TFTP server:
• img (AP software image or kernel)
• config (configuration file)
• bspBl (BSP/Bootloader firmware file)
Setup your TFTP Server
A Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server allows you to transfer files
across a network. You can
• upload files from the AP for backup or copying, and
• download the files for configuration and AP Image upgrades.
The Solarwinds TFTP server software is located on the Avaya Wireless
AP Installation CD-ROM. You can also download the latest TFTP
software from Solarwind’s Web si
.
If a TFTP server is not configured and running, you will not be able to
download and upload images and configuration files to/from the AP.
Remember that the TFTP server does not have to be local as long as you
have a valid TFTP IP address. Also, a TFTP server does not have to be
running for the AP to perform tasks that do not involve file transfers.
