I'm trying to update the firmware on my extreme networks summit 48 switch. I have tried a few different TFTP software such as OpenTFTP and SolarWind TFTP. I get the error saying can't connect to tftp server
I think I might have a missing element which would be DHCP, I'm not sure but I think that might be the part missing to why my switch can't connect. I know TFTP should be enable by default in Windows Server 2008, but I don't know which folder I need to put the firmware file in.
Any suggestion?

Please verify the VR used for ping and the VR where the TFTP server available.

I did try to ping, but I did not get any luck there. I tried to ping different hosts and all got a 100% packet loss.

1) check if you are able to ping the tftp server from the switch.
2) Follow the procedure to start the tftp server from below url "http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/network-basics-tftp-installation-and-use.html"
3) Then download image.
