TFTP is usually a UDP-based protocol... Are you sure you mean to be 
using TCP with it?

If you're just looking to send a file to your device with u-boot, have 
you looked at the wget command? 
https://docs.u-boot.org/en/latest/usage/cmd/wget.html Or are you trying 
to send a file from u-boot to your lab computer?
