A TFTP server must be installed on a TCP/IP-ready workstation or PC. Once the application is installed, a minimal level of configuration must be performed.

1. First, the TFTP application must be configured to operate as a TFTP server as opposed to a TFTP client.

2. Second, the outbound file directory must be specified. This is the directory in which the Ruijie RGOS Software images are stored (see step 2 below). Most TFTP applications provide a setup routine to assist in these configuration tasks.

Note: A number of TFTP are available from independent software vendors or as shareware from public sources on the World Wide Web.

3. Third, download a TFTP Server. There are many TFTP servers available, and they can be easily found by searching for “tftp server” on your favorite Internet search engine. Ruijie does not specifically recommend any particular TFTP implementation.
