BOOTPEF(8) System Manager's Manual BOOTPEF(8)NAME
bootpef - BOOTP Extension File compiler
SYNOPSIS
bootpef [-c chdir] [-d debug-level] [-f config-file] [client-name [...]]
DESCRIPTION
bootpef builds the Extension Path files described by RFC 1497 (tag 18). If any client-name arguments are specified, then bootpef compiles
the extension files for only those clients.
OPTIONS -c chdir-path
Sets the current directory used by bootpef while creating extension files. This is useful when the extension file names are speci-
fied as relative pathnames, and bootpef needs to use the same current directory as the TFTP server (typically /tftpboot).
-d debug-level
Sets the debug-level variable that controls the amount of debugging messages generated. For example, -d4 or -d 4 will set the
debugging level to 4.
-f config-file
Set the name of the config file that specifies the option data to be sent to each client.
