Without understanding what the request be, I'd be surprised if you could assign IPs amd MACs randomly reading from two independent files.
You should either read and use the DHCP config file, or the actual DHCP server's tables to find relations between the two.

bptojdb(8) System Manager's Manual bptojdb(8)
NAME
bptojdb - Converts bootptab entries into permanent, static IP entries for JOIN databases.
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/bptojdb [-m | -f] filename
OPTIONS
Create client IDs for Microsoft DHCP clients. Microsoft does not use the client's MAC address by itself as the client identifier.
Instead, it prepends a 01 (Ethernet) to the MAC address and changes the hardware type to 0 (generic). If the clients in your bootptab file
are Microsoft clients, you will need to use the -m option. Create client IDs for FTP Software's DHCP clients. FTP Software does not use
the client's MAC address by itself as the client identifier. Instead, it creates a 16-byte client identifier with the prefix "cid-". If
the clients in your bootptab file are FTP Software DHCP clients, you will need to use the -f option.
DESCRIPTION
The bptojdb program reads entries in a standard bootptab file and creates permanent, static IP entries for the JOIN databases. After read-
ing the bootptab file, bptojdb displays to the standard output entries in a format suitable for the jdbmod utility. Each MAC address in the
bootptab file is given a static IP address with a permanent lease. To store the information in the JOIN databases, run jdbmod with the
converted data. For example: bptojdb bootptab | jdbmod
