TFTP via VRF

[chopra.nitin]

Hi,

I have to download IOS into my 10K cisco router.  The problem is I am getting the TFTP server route from VRF table and not global routing table.  Is there any way I can download from VRF table?

The current ios command is copy tftp<> flash<>

Thanks for your reply

Hi Nitin

Is it possible for you to leak the route from VRF to the global IP routing table  or vice versa ? once your vrf route leaks to global, your router will be able to see the tftp server on normal ip routing table. Im not sure about your internal setup or complications, but you can probably have a look at this doc for more help:

Hope this helps..  all the best..

Ik think you can solve your problem to set your tftp source interface to one into the correct vrf

try "ip tftp source interface X"  where X is member of the vrf

Works fine with "ip tftp source-interface BDI501 " in my ASR920 Router

Interface BDI501 is in a vrf.

Thanks !
