bootfile
<filename>
Use the
bootfile
command to specify a fully qualified directory-path name to a file located on a TFTP
server on the network. Some network devices use the file (the path sent to the DHCP client in the
DHCPOFFER message) for initial configuration. Use the
no
form of this command to remove a configured
boot file.
Syntax Description
<filename>
Specifies a fully qualified directory-path name to the file located on the network. If
the file is located in the root directory of the TFTP server, enter the filename only.
Default Values
By default there is no specified boot file.
Functional Notes
RFC2131 provides specifications for DHCP servers to supply clients with information that allows the clients
to exchange packets with other hosts on the network. DHCP clients that do not store the correct boot
software on an internal flash drive can receive a bootfile from a TFTP server. The ProCurve Secure Router
DHCP server can provide these devices with the address of the network TFTP server and the
configuration filename. For example, some IP phones use this functionality to download the feature and
key activation file. Use the
tftp-server
command (in the DHCP Pool command set) to specify the IP
address of the network TFTP server.
RFC2131 includes provisions to allow DHCP servers to utilize the 128 octets designated for the bootfile
directory-path for expanding the DHCP options field. RFC1533 outlines the available DHCP variables for
the options field. This process must be negotiated between client and server during the DHCPDISCOVER
process and should only take place if the client specifies a small maxDHCPmessage size in the
DHCPDISCOVER message.
Usage Examples
The following example specifies the location of a TFTP server on the LAN at 10.10.0.4 and a bootfile of
myconfig.cfg
(located in the TFTP server root directory) for the DHCP pool
IP_Phones
:
ProCurve(config)#
ip dhcp-server pool IP_Phones
ProCurve(config-dhcp)#
tftp sever 10.10.0.4
ProCurve(config-dhcp)#
bootfile myconfig.cfg
