Problem with TFTP Server

I am trying to download a config and it's failing. I think the problem is related to Solarwind's TFTP Server app. I have 2 nics on the server one using 100mbps and the other one using 1gbps.

In the NCM settings i selected the "Do not retreive IP automatically" and entered the ip fo the 100Mbps connection. I had to do that because when i clicked retreive IP, it would give me the IP of the other nic (1gpbs).

So now when I look at the TFTP Server app, I see bottom right that the IP that it is using is the ip from the 1Gbps NIC. I looked into the "Configure" menu of this app and could'nt find anything to change the IP that I would use for the TFTP Server.

Any way to change this?

There's an update to the free TFTP Server coming out soon that will allow you to specify which NIC to use for TFTP transfers. I believe the TFTP server version you are using automatically defaults to the first one.

The only way to make it bind to a different interface is to disable the other interface and restart the TFTP server. Then, you can re-enable the interface.
