TFTP

Trivial File Transfer Protocol is a simplified version of FTP used for basic file transfers between network devices. It operates in the Application layer over UDP port 69 and lacks authentication, encryption, or any advanced features.

Interaction with the protocol

  • Install

sudo apt install tftp

  • Connect using the protocol

tftp $ip
tftp:\>          #Text based interface
tftp:\> get $filename               #Download a file
tftp:\> put $filename               #Upload a file
tftp:\> connect $IP                 #Change server
tftp:\> quit                        #Close connection
