TFTP support broken

2024-03-10 20:51:29 - last edited 2024-03-11 06:28:13

Model: ER605 (TL-R605)

Hardware Version: V2

Firmware Version: 2.2.4 Build 20240119 Rel.44368

I have configured TFTP to support PXE boot but our servers receive the gateway as the tftp server rather than the DHCP TFTP Server which is set. There was a thread from 2023 that talked about this bug but I am many revisions past this. Has anyone been able to get this working?

Are you referring to this one?

With PXE boot, you also need the Next Server to make it boot.

There was a beta for standalone I recall that. If you need that beta, I'll look it up for you.

I don't recall it was patched in the official but I am sure that it was confirmed that future firmware and controller will fix this problem.

@Clive_A

Thank you for the reply - I was hoping that the NEXT SERVER option was added since that older thead. If not, the beta would be much appreciated as long as I don't lose current firmware functionality.

Thank you!
