Use the TFTP Server Name screen to set the TFTP server address which is passed to the clients
using DHCP option 66. The DHCP clients in the GPON Device local network, such as STB devices
that support the TFTP booting mechanism, can then use the TFTP server address or domain name
for initial system settings download. RFC 2132 defines the option 66 open standard. DHCP option
66 carries the IP address or the domain name of a single TFTP server.
