Switch can't transfer file to tftp server
Dell N-3048P switch setup with a management vlan and a default gateway. Trying to copy the running or startup config, " copy run config tftp://x.x.x.x/filename" and failed.
There's connectivity between the switch and the server (verified with ping source ip from management vlan). UDP por 69 is opened on the firewall. I don't see tftp traffic hitting the firwall (counter 0 traffic) when I initiate tftp from the switch.

Hello, I am having this same exact issue. I don't get any verbose error output. It only tells me that it fails. I can ping the remote server and the firewall is open for UDP 69. My HP switches are able to upload to the tftp server but this Dell switch is unable to.
dellswitch #copy startup-config t10.0.3.100/.../switch-2-1.config
Mode........................................... TFTP
Set TFTP Server IP............................. 10.0.3.100
TFTP Path...................................... tftpboot/
TFTP Filename.................................. switch-2-1.config
Data Type...................................... Config Script
Source Filename................................ startup-config
Management access will be blocked for the duration of the transfer
Are you sure you want to start? (y/n) y
File transfer failed!
