<abstract>
<t>

   The Trivial File Transfer Protocol [1] is a simple, lock-step, file

   transfer protocol which allows a client to get or put a file onto a

   remote host.
</t>
<t>


   This document describes two TFTP options. The first allows the client

   and server to negotiate the Timeout Interval.  The second allows the

   side receiving the file to determine the ultimate size of the

   transfer before it begins.  The TFTP Option Extension mechanism is

   described in [2].
