b
bootpd(1M) bootpd(1M)
ef=filename
Specifies the name of an extensions file. The file, retrievable via TFTP, contains information
which can be interpreted in the same way as the 64-octet vendor-extension field within the
BOOTP response. The maximum length of the file is unconstrained. All references to an
extensions filename within the file are ignored.
gw=ip_address_list
This tag specifies the IP addresses of gateways for the client’s subnet. If one of multiple gate-
ways is preferred, it should be listed first.
hd=home-directory
This tag specifies a directory name to which the bootfile is appended (see the
bf tag above).
The default value of the
hd tag is
/.
hn The presence of this tag indicates that the client’s host name should be sent in the boot reply.
The
hn tag is a boolean tag.
bootpd attempts to send the entire host name as it is specified
in the configuration file or hosts database. The configuration file is checked first, if the host
name is not found, the hosts (4) database is then checked. If the hostname cannot fit into the
reply packet, an attempt is made to shorten the name to just the host field (up to the first
period, if present) and then tried. In no case is an arbitrarily truncated host name sent. If
nothing reasonable can fit, nothing is sent.

Specifies the NetBIOS node type code. Allows NetBIOS over TCP/IP clients to be configured as
described in RFC1001/1002. The NetBIOS_node_type can be an unsigned decimal, octal, or
hexadecimal integer corresponding to one of the client types as follows:
0x1 or B-node for B-node;
0x2 or P-node for P-node;
0x4 or M-node for M-node;
0x8 or H-node for H-node.
