TFTP server on 2691 router

[John Cheetley]

Dear Cisco techs,

Can someone please guide me to link on how to set up TFTP on 2691 router

When I type conf t.

tttp-server flash: is does nothing

Or tftp-server gives unrecognized command

Have searched quite a few places. Leads to various links but nothing conclusive. One directed me to a tftpdnld command but is for ios image updating only.

Want to update flash: with more files for ip phone

Why does cisco make this so difficult?

Thanks again :)

It's suppose to be "tftp-server flash:filename.extension".

Is this for phone firmware as well as link above only shows for ios images. 

When I do tftp-server flash: filename.extension ..comes back with unrecognised command

[Leo Laohoo]

This should work for any file.  

You're getting error message?  Hmmmm ... Are you doing this is global configuration mode?

[John Cheetley]

No . Thanks for prompt response Leo..:)

[Leo Laohoo · Accepted solution]

What happens if you do this:  

config t

tftp flash:filename.extension

end

[John Cheetley]

Thanks Leo. I wasn't in global config mode. All this cisco stuff is very interesting and at time challenging. LUV IT

One more question if I may.

Sh clock keep referring back to year 2002 after being updated. I unplug router. Goes back to 2002. How can I keep it as current date?

NTP server has been set but not synchronised. 

Does NTP server control the sh clock command output?
