Explanation

FTP is connection-oriented and runs over TCP, using ports 20 and 21. TCP provides reliability through acknowledgments and retransmission. TFTP is a lightweight file-transfer protocol that runs over UDP on port 69 and typically does not use authentication. In Cisco environments, TFTP is commonly used for simple image and configuration transfers during boot or recovery workflows, while FTP is the reliable TCP-based option.
