rarpd
RARP(8) Linux Programmer's Manual RARP(8)NAME
rarpd - Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP) daemon
SYNOPSIS
rarpd [-aAvode] [-b bootdir] [interface]
DESCRIPTION
Rarpd is a daemon which responds to RARP requests. RARP is used by some machines at boot time to discover their IP address. They provide
their Ethernet address and rarpd responds with their IP address if it finds it in the ethers database (either /etc/ethers file or NIS+
lookup) and using DNS lookup if ethers database contains a hostname and not an IP address. By default rarpd also checks if a bootable
image with a name starting with the IP address in hexadecimal uppercase letters is present in the TFTP boot directory (usually /tftpboot )
before it decides to respond to the RARP request.
The optional argument interface restricts the daemon instance to access only the indicated network interface. Only a single name is possi-
ble.
OPTIONS -a Do not bind to the interface.
-A Respond to ARP as well as RARP requests.
-v Tell the user what is going on by being verbose.
-d Debugging mode. Do not detach from the tty. This also implies verbose mode.
-e Skip the check for bootable image in the TFTP boot directory. If not present, then even if the Ethernet address is present in the
ethers database but the bootable image for the resolved IP does not exist, rarpd will not respond to the request.
-o Accept offlink packages on the active interfaces.
-b bootdir
Access bootdir instead of the default /tftpboot as the TFTP boot directory for bootable image checks.
OBSOLETES
This daemon rarpd obsoletes kernel rarp daemon present in Linux kernels up to 2.2 which was controlled by the rarp(8) command.
SIGNALS
SIGHUP Renew the internal address list, which records IPv4 addresses available at each active network interface. The restriction set by the
command line argument interface is still in effect, if in use.
FILES
/etc/ethers,
/etc/nsswitch.conf,
/tftpboot
