The given command is using the TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) utility to initiate a file transfer operation.
Here's what each element of the command means:
tftp
: A command-line utility used to transfer files to and from remote systems using the TFTP protocol.${server_ip}
: The variable represents the IP address of the TFTP server. You need to replace${server_ip}
with the actual IP address you want to connect to.-6
: This flag enables the use of IPv6 addressing mode, indicating that the communication will be made over an IPv6 network.-R
: This option specifies that the TFTP utility will receive a file from the server.${port}:${port}
: The${port}
variable is used twice to represent the same port number. You need to replace${port}
with the desired port number for communication. This syntax is used to specify the source and destination ports for the TFTP transfer.
