When attempting to use tftp instead of the web UI for uploading the dia.zip file, the following error is seen:
#> python 192.168.0.1:dia.zip
…
File received
File “”, line 1
PK
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Same error seen using tftp from Windows and Linux. My desire is to automate (script) the compile/upload/reboot process without having to click through the GUI.
The way you are using the command indicates that the file being received by the TFTP is executed as a python file. Since its a zip file, it will fail.
Unfortunately there is no way (at least that I know of) to tftp over files to the device using the CLI. It seems that we’re stuck with the http uploads for now.
I’ve opened a change request to retrieve files using TFTP via the CLI.
