.Nm tftp

|
.Nd "trivial file transfer program"
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Nm
|
|
.Op Ar host Op Ar port
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility is the user interface to the Internet
|
|
.Tn TFTP
|
|
(Trivial File Transfer Protocol),
|
|
which allows users to transfer files to and from a remote machine.
|
|
The remote
|
|
.Ar host
|
|
may be specified on the command line, in which case
|
|
.Nm
|
|
uses
|
|
.Ar host
|
|
as the default host for future transfers (see the
|
|
.Ic connect
|
|
command below).
|
|
.Sh COMMANDS
|
|
Once
|
|
.Nm
|
|
is running, it issues the prompt
|
|
.Dq Li "tftp> "
|
|
and recognizes the following commands:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Ic verbose" -compact
|
|
.It Ic \&? Ar command-name ...
|
|
Print help information.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ic ascii
|
|
Shorthand for
|
|
.Ic mode Cm ascii .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ic binary
|
|
Shorthand for
|
|
.Ic mode Cm binary .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ic connect Ar host Op Ar port
|
|
Set the
|
|
.Ar host
|
|
(and optionally
|
|
.Ar port )
|
|
for transfers.
|
|
Note that the
|
|
.Tn TFTP
|
|
protocol, unlike the
|
|
.Tn FTP
|
|
protocol,
|
|
does not maintain connections between transfers; thus, the
|
|
.Ic connect
|
|
command does not actually create a connection,
|
|
but merely remembers what host is to be used for transfers.
|
|
You do not have to use the
|
|
.Ic connect
|
|
command; the remote host can be specified as part of the
|
|
.Ic get
|
|
or
|
|
.Ic put
|
|
commands.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ic get Oo Ar host : Oc Ns Ar file Op Ar localname
|
|
.It Ic get Xo
|
|
.Oo Ar host1 : Oc Ns Ar file1
|
|
.Oo Ar host2 : Oc Ns Ar file2 ...
|
|
.Oo Ar hostN : Oc Ns Ar fileN
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Get one or more files from the remote host.
|
|
When using the
|
|
.Ar host
|
|
argument, the
|
|
.Ar host
|
|
will be used as default host for future transfers.
|
|
If
|
|
.Ar localname
|
|
is specified, the file is stored locally as
|
|
.Ar localname ,
|
|
otherwise the original filename is used.
|
|
Note that it is not possible to download two files at a time, only
|
|
one, three, or more than three files, at a time.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
To specify an IPv6 numeric address for a host, wrap it using square
|
|
brackets like
|
|
.Dq Li [3ffe:2900:e00c:ffee::1234] : Ns Ar file
|
|
to disambiguate the
|
|
colons used in the IPv6 address from the colon separating the host and
|
|
the filename.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ic mode Ar transfer-mode
|
|
Set the mode for transfers;
|
|
.Ar transfer-mode
|
|
may be one of
|
|
.Cm ascii
|
|
or
|
|
.Cm binary .
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Cm ascii .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ic put Ar file Op Oo Ar host : Oc Ns Ar remotename
|
|
.It Ic put Ar file1 file2 ... fileN Op Oo Ar host : Oc Ns Ar remote-directory
|
|
Put a file or set of files to the remote host.
|
|
When
|
|
.Ar remotename
|
|
is specified, the file is stored remotely as
|
|
.Ar remotename ,
|
|
otherwise the original filename is used.
|
|
If the
|
|
.Ar remote-directory
|
|
argument is used, the remote host is assumed to be a
|
|
.Ux
|
|
machine.
|
|
To specify an IPv6 numeric address for a
|
|
.Ar host ,
|
|
see the example under the
|
|
.Ic get
|
|
command.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ic quit
|
|
Exit
|
|
.Nm .
|
|
An end of file also exits.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ic rexmt Ar retransmission-timeout
|
|
Set the per-packet retransmission timeout, in seconds.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ic status
|
|
Show current status.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ic timeout Ar total-transmission-timeout
|
|
Set the total transmission timeout, in seconds.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ic trace
|
|
Toggle packet tracing.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ic verbose
|
|
Toggle verbose mode.

.Sh HISTORY
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
command appeared in
|
|
.Bx 4.3 .
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
Because there is no user-login or validation within
|
|
the
|
|
.Tn TFTP
|
|
protocol, the remote site will probably have some
|
|
sort of file-access restrictions in place.
|
|
The
|
|
exact methods are specific to each site and therefore
|
|
difficult to document here.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Files larger than 33488896 octets (65535 blocks) cannot be transferred
|
|
without client and server supporting blocksize negotiation (RFC1783).
