bootptest

BOOTPTEST(8)						      System Manager's Manual						      BOOTPTEST(8)

NAME

       bootptest - send BOOTP queries and print responses

SYNOPSIS

       bootptest [ -f bootfile ] [ -h ] [ -m magic_number ] server-name [template-file]

DESCRIPTION

       bootptest  sends  BOOTP requests to the host specified as server-name at one-second intervals until either a response is received, or until
       ten requests have gone unanswered.  After a response is received, bootptest will wait one more second listening for additional responses.

OPTIONS

       -f bootfile
	      Fill in the boot file field of the request with bootfile.

       -h     Use the hardware (Ethernet) address to identify the client.  By default, the IP address is copied into the request  indicating  that
	      this client already knows its IP address.

       -m magic_number
	      Initialize the first word of the vendor options field with magic_number.

       A  template-file  may  be  specified, in which case bootptest uses the (binary) contents of this file to initialize the options area of the
       request packet.

CREDITS

       The bootptest program is a combination of original and derived works.  The main program module (bootptest.c) is original work by Gordon	W.
       Ross gwr@mc.com.  The packet printing module (print-bootp.c) is a slightly modified version of a file from the BSD tcpdump program.

       This  program  includes	software  developed  by the University of California, Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory and its contributors.  (See the
       copyright notice in print-bootp.c)
