As is, this cannot be changed. The TFTP port number is hard wired
in the code - see "net/tftp.c":
...
18 /* Well known TFTP port # */
19 #define WELL_KNOWN_PORT 69
...
Of course it should be trivial to add a config option for this, or
even make it changable at runtime. But I have to admit that I don't
see many actual use cases for such a modification.
Could you please explain why you need to do this - is this just some
exotic environment, or is this needed for some more general use case?
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
