it also failed wenn i change the IP config from DHCP to static

providing a non existing IP to tftp-server config failed as expected.

Root cause is the inability of tftpd to listen on multiple addresses.

Python scripts need to be adjusted to spawn one tftp instance per configured listen address. As 127.0.0.1 is a preconfigured address this blocks all other addresses.

A workaround would be to remove the marked lines: https://github.com/vyos/vyos-1x/blob/crux/src/conf_mode/tftp_server.py#L99-L101
