I used TFTPD32 to TFTP a 76mb IOS bin file from my laptop to a CAT6509 switch with no problems. It took 4 or 5 minutes but worked great!

I am going to attempt to TFTP a 76mb file using TFTP server and the IOS.<br />
<br />
I have read some posts about people hitting size limits but most were trying to TFTP from ROMMON.<br />
<br />
Using TFTPD32 as my TFTP server and the command &quot;copy tftp disk0:&quot; on a Catalyst 6509 switch ios version 12.2(18)SXE3.<br />

Should I have any problems?

I am going to attempt to TFTP a 76mb file using TFTP server and the IOS.

I have read some posts about people hitting size limits but most were trying to TFTP from ROMMON.

Using TFTPD32 as my TFTP server and the command "copy tftp disk0:" on a Catalyst 6509 switch ios version 12.2(18)SXE3.

Should I have any problems?

Is there a max file size for TFTP and the Cisco IOS?

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.

A switch is a device that filters and forwards packets of data between LAN segments. Switches operate at the data link layer or the network layer of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Reference Model and therefore support any packet protocol. LANs that use switches to join segments are called switched LANs or, in the case of Ethernet networks, switched Ethernet LANs. A hub is a connection point for devices in a network. Hubs are commonly used to connect segments of a LAN. A hub contains multiple ports; when a packet arrives at one port, it is copied to the other ports so that all segments of the LAN can see all packets.

Network design and methodology, also known as network architecture, is the design of a communication network. It is a framework for the specification of a network's physical components and their functional organization and configuration, its operational principles and procedures, as well as data formats used in its operation. In telecommunication, the specification of a network architecture may also include a detailed description of products and services delivered via a communications network, as well as detailed rate and billing structures under which services are compensated.
