TFTP Block Size If TFTP is used for file transfers, the
TFTP Block Size is used to control the
protocol transfer size. When
transferring file over wired LAN
interfaces, a block size of 4096 or 8192
will make the transfer go faster. When
transferring over a lossy wireless link,
the block size should be kept to 512 or
1024 to minimize packet retries.
