### Setting up TFTP (macOS)
Fortunately macOS has a built in tftp server, all you have to do is enable it. First, load the service:
```
sudo launchctl load -F /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/tftp.plist
```
Start the service:
```
sudo launchctl start com.apple.tftpd
```
By default, the tftp directory is at `/private/tftpboot`. Be sure to grant permissions:
```
sudo chmod 777 /private/tftpboot
```
Move the contents of `TFTP-Content` to the `/private/tftpboot` directory.
Once complete, you can stop and disable the service:
```
sudo launchctl stop com.apple.tftpd
sudo launchctl unload -F /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/tftp.plist
##optionally to be double sure tftp is no longer running, ensure theres no output from the following:
sudo lsof -i :69
```

Power on the switch while watching your serial terminal - it will have a prompt saying ```Hit b to enter the boot monitor``` - press ```b``` quickly and you'll be dropped into the bootloader prompt, now we can upgrade the software. If you missed the prompt and it boots the OS instead, pull power and try again.
