If you need a system running a Microsoft Windows operating system to function as a Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server, one free solution is the SolarWinds TFTP server program available from the company's website at TFTP Server. After installation of the software, if you open the application, you will see that the TFTP service is started and listening for data on User Datagram Protocol (UDP) port 69.
If you open a
command prompt window and issue
the command netstat -anp udp and
pipe the output
into the find, you should also see the system is listening
on all network interfaces, i.e., 0.0.0.0, on UDP port 69.
C:\Users\Public\Downloads>netstat -anp udp | find "0.0.0.0:69" UDP 0.0.0.0:69 *:* C:\Users\Public\Downloads>
The installation program also installs a TFTP service, which is
set to run automatically when Windows boots; you can see information
on the service if you open Services and scroll through the list of
services on the system — you can open a Services window by
typing services.msc at a command prompt window and hitting
Enter.
