Automatic Configuration with Bootp
Automatic Configuration with Bootp
When automatic configuration with Bootp is selected and the LAN
Interface Card is powered on, it broadcasts a BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol)
request that contains its MAC (hardware) address. A BOOTP server
daemon searches its database for a matching MAC address, and if
successful, sends the corresponding configuration parameters to the card
as a BOOTP reply. These parameters become the active TCP/IP parameters
immediately and the TCP/IP connection can be established.
