TFTP_TIMEOUT: Overall timeout of operation in seconds (default=7200) TFTP_RETRY_COUNT: Retry count for ARP and TFTP (default=7) TFTP_SERVER: The IP address of the server to fetch from IP_SUBNET_MASK: The subnet mask for this unitĭEFAULT_GATEWAY: The default gateway for this unit The following variables are REQUIRED to be set for tftpdnld: "ctrl-c" or "break" stops the transfer before flash erase begins. (Syntax: "VARIABLE_NAME=value" and use "set" to show current variables.) Monitor variables are used to set up parameters for the transfer. Use this command for disaster recovery only to recover an image via TFTP.
Missing or illegal ip address for variable IP_ADDRESS I tried tftpdnld command in case and i got this output due to missing file, my router goes directly to rom mode. Once you’ve installed the software you’ll have a new folder in the root of C: called TFTP-Root, you can drop any files in here and they’re ready to be copied.Hello my router has missing the IOS file but i have the copy of the file in my tftp server. You just need to provide Solarwinds with some basic info to open an account and then the download is yours. It’s made by SolarWinds and you can currently get it from here: If you need advice for setting up a TFTP server you can get a really decent quick to install / use one for Windows. In total it took about 1-2 minutes to do the whole 80MB file compared to about 15MB in 15 minutes prior to increasing the blocksize. I noticed my speed increase substantially transferring an 80MB IOS file, somewhere between 10-20 times faster.
Your maximum block size may not be 8192 so choose that devices maximum. To up the speed you only need 1 command, again you need to be in the global config elevation: ROUTER(config)#ip tftp blocksize 8192 The default transfer speed of TFTP can be exceptionally slow, for example I was getting 1MB a minute (~20Kbps) across core infrastructure which can and does do 1Gbps/10Gbps regularly. For me it helped as I didn’t have a physical interface / SVI in my management VRF on this device but I did have a loopback. NB#2: You can set the source interface to a loopback in case that helps. NB#1: This will also set it inside a VRF if that interface has a VRF on it.
To set your source interface for a TFTP download you only need 1 line of config and you need to be inside the global configuration level: ROUTER(config)#ip tftp source-interface loopback 100 This quick little article is around tips for using TFTP with Cisco kit.
