TFTP is a simple file transfer protocol running over IP that permits unsecured and 
unauthorized file exchange over the Internet/Intranet. TFTP is widely used to 
upgrade software and configuration parameters for various standalone units. TFTP 
is a client-server type protocol; FCD-IPM operates as the TFTP client. In order to 
use the TFTP-based features of FCD-IPM you need TFTP server software running 
on some of your PCs. 
This screen permits you to configure common TFTP session parameters that are 
used for software upgrades and upload/download features.
