When SystemACE support is added, the "ace" device type
becomes available to the fat commands, i.e. fatls.
- TFTP Fixed UDP Port:
CONFIG_TFTP_PORT
If this is defined, the environment variable tftpport
is used to supply the TFTP UDP source port value.
If tftpport isn't defined, the normal pseudo-random port
number generator is used.
The purpose for this is to allow a TFTP server to
blindly start the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured
target IP address and UDP port. This has the effect of
"punching through" the (Windows XP) firewall, allowing
the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed normally.
A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
but sometimes that is not allowed.

tftpport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's
UDP source port.
vlan - When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q
VLAN tagged frames.
