Abstract TBD

Installing the tftp server

  1. Install the tftp server package.

    # dnf install tftp-server

  2. Start and enable the tftp socket. systemd will automatically start the tftpd service when required.

    # systemctl start tftp.socket
# systemctl enable tftp.socket
    If you enable the TFTP service in dnsmasq, allow access by TFTP requests:
 # iptables -I INPUT -i eth1 -p udp --dport 69 -j ACCEPT
