System Service & Usage

Service

Advantech has built five common network services: tftp service, ftp service, ssh service, telnet service and http service.

Tftp Server

When boot up the target board, the tftp service is already started by default(On advantech AM335x platform) and the tftp server’s working directory is /tftpboot. You need execute “chmod 777 /tftpboot” on target system to let the tftp server work. Then, user can tftp to target board by tftp client in host PC. Use command to get and put file like this:

hostPC$ tftp TARGET_SYSTEM_IP
tftp>get file1
tftp>put file2

Command “get file1” is to download file1 from tftp server. File “file1” must exist under the directory /tftpboot on your target filesystem; Command “put file2” is to upload file2 to tftp server. If put file2 success, file2 will be put to directory /tftpboot on your target filesystem;
