Description: This object is used to initiate the TFTP transfers configured in cpqnTftpTable. When setting this object, the only valid values are initiate-transfer(3) and initiate_transfer-reset(4). Attempts to set this object to other values are rejected with a Bad Value error.

When this object is set to initiate-transfer(3), the agent does not reset (reboot) after the TFTP transfer(s) is(are) complete. Normal agent operation is resumed after the transfer(s). During the transfer(s), SNMP communication may or may not be available; consult the product-specific documentation.

When this object is set to initiate-transfer-reset(4), the agent performs a reset (reboot) after the TFTP transfer(s) is(are) complete. SNMP communication may be lost at some point during the transfer/reset activity. SNMP communication resumes once the agent reset is complete.

If the agent does not support the requested transfer mode, it rejects the set request with a Bad Value error.

The agent returns transfer-in-progress(2) when this object is queried while a TFTP transfer is in progress. In order to avoid unexpected results, it is invalid to modify set any objects in cpqnTftpTable while this object is set to transfer-in-progress(2).

The agent sets this object to no-transfer-ipr(1) after all TFTP transfers are completed.
