The main time I have seen this type of behavior is when the router
config contains the "service config" command. There are a few other
circumstances where the router invokes tftp (like sending a dump
file to a server, but I have not seen the router repeatedly and
spontaneously do that). It might be behelpful to know what file
name is referenced when the router attempts the tftp. Or perhaps
a sanitized copy of your config might help find a solution.
