For what it's worth, I've found that the 3Com TFTP server for Windows ( http://support.3com.com/software/3cdv2r10.zip ) seems to support the large file sizes and works with the biggest files on the Sup720s. It seems that other TFTP servers like Pumpkin that claim to work with large files don't work with Cisco. Probably for that reason.

Support > for tftp RFC2348 is required to transfer images over 32MB. tftp seems to be in some bizarro world, as actually typical way to implement >32MB is just to roll over block#, which isn't documented in any standard that I know off, and that's why correctly working tftp servers, such as atftpd won't work with larger than 32MB files in those servers. Cisco also does that, not sure if IOS does though. It's especially evil that some cisco product do not support any other file transfer protocol and still have >32MB images and also do not implement any standard compliant way to actually transfer >32MB images to them. -- ++ytti _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/ _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
