# TFTP

The Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) provides a minimalistic means for transferring files. It is generally used as a part of PXE booting or for updating configuration and firmware on devices which have limited memory such as routers and printers.

### tftp-hpa

To modify service parameters edit `/etc/conf.d/tftpd`.

### atftp
