A device obtains its configuration file by using the following workflow:
•
If the DHCP response contains the configuration file name, the device requests the specified
configuration file from the TFTP server.
•
If not, the device tries to get its host name from the host name file obtained from the TFTP server. If
it fails, the device resolves its IP address to the host name through DNS server. Once the device gets
its host name, it requests the configuration file with the same name from the TFTP server.

•
If all the operations fail, the device requests the default configuration file from the TFTP server.
TFTP request sending mode
The device selects to unicast or broadcast a TFTP request by using the following workflow:
•
If a legitimate TFTP server IP address is contained in the DHCP response, the device unicasts a TFTP
request to the TFTP server.
