Configuring the TFTP Server

You can specify the address or name of the TFTP server to be used by the DHCP clients.
Note: If DHCP options 66 (TFTP server name) and 150 (TFTP server IP address) are both configured, the DHCP client ignores option 150 and tries to resolve the TFTP server name (option 66) using DNS.
  1. Enter global configuration mode. 
    device# configure terminal
  2. Create and enter DHCP server pool configuration mode. 
    device(config)# ip dhcp-server pool cabo
  3. Configure a TFTP server by specifying its IP address or server name. 
    device(config-dhcp-cabo)# option tftp-server-address 10.7.5.48
device(config-dhcp-cabo)# option tftp-server-name tftp.domain.com
    The first example configures a TFTP server by specifying its IP address, while the second example configures a TFTP server by specifying its server name.
