Whats the difference between TFTP and FTP?

0

FTP and TFTP are different protocols. You can’t generally use an FTP client to talk to a TFTP server or vice versa. TFTP – Trivial FTP does not do authentication. It gets used, for example, to allow workstations to boot from the network. Since there’s no authentication, there’s no security. That’s OK if your whole network is isolated and physically secure. The IP address of the host interface is the IP address of the FTP server. A computer host can have more than one interface, and therefore, more than one IP address. The FTP server does not listen to an IP address or bind to it in any way.
