Enables/Disables TFTP.

Note: If SFTP is enabled, this field will be set to No. You
cannot use this field to enable TFTP if SFTP is enabled.
Attempting to do so produces an Inconsistent value
message in the banner below the Actions line.

Figure A-6. Using the Menu Interface To Disable TFTP

While SFTP is enabled, TFTP and auto-TFTP cannot be enabled from the
CLI. Attempting to enable either non-secure TFTP option while SFTP is
enabled produces one of the following messages in the CLI:

SFTP must be disabled before enabling tftp.

SFTP must be disabled before enabling auto-tftp.

Similarly, while SFTP is enabled, TFTP cannot be enabled using an SNMP
management application. Attempting to do so generates an “inconsistent
value” message. (An SNMP management application cannot be used to
enable or disable auto-TFTP.)

To enable SFTP by using an SNMP management application, you must
first disable TFTP and, if configured, auto-TFTP on the switch. You can
use either an SNMP application or the CLI to disable TFTP, but must use
the CLI to disable auto-TFTP. The following two CLI commands disable
TFTP and auto-TFTP on the switch.
