It depends on where your tftp root folder is. If you place the lic file in the tftp root, you do not need to specify a directory. Configure your tftp server correctly.

Ex.

tftp://10.10.20.10/license.lic

Or in your case:

tftp://172.32.45.22/license.lic

That a directory named cmm. So the license file is placed in the root folder/cmm

Let me clarify... If your license file is on your desktop, then you would configure or set your root tftp folder to your desktop. Then all you have to do is:

tftp://172.32.45.22/license.lic

Assuming your tftp server ip is 172.32.45.22

thank you Fella for your support

actually the best practice is to just keep the lic. file in tftp server's directory folder

and use the same comand from GUI

tftp://172.32.45.22/license.lic

thanks
