Chapter 13 Inspection of Basic Internet Protocols
TFTP Inspection
The inspection engine inspects TFTP read request (RRQ), write request (WRQ), and error notification
(ERROR), and dynamically creates connections and translations, if necessary, to permit file transfer
between a TFTP client and server.
A dynamic secondary channel and a PAT translation, if necessary, are allocated on a reception of a valid
read (RRQ) or write (WRQ) request. This secondary channel is subsequently used by TFTP for file
transfer or error notification.
Only the TFTP server can initiate traffic over the secondary channel, and at most one incomplete
secondary channel can exist between the TFTP client and server. An error notification from the server
closes the secondary channel.
TFTP inspection must be enabled if static PAT is used to redirect TFTP traffic.
For information on enabling TFTP inspection, see Configure Application Layer Protocol Inspection,
page 12-9.
