b
bootpd(1M) bootpd(1M)
sa=tftp_server
This tag specifies the IP address of the TFTP server where the client’s bootfile resides. When
this option is enabled, bootpd uses the IP address specified in this tag for the siaddr field in a
BOOTP/DHCP packet header. Otherwise, the IP address of the BOOTP/DHCP server is used in
the siaddr field. The
sa tag allows the BOOTP/DHCP server and the TFTP server to be two
different systems, if desired.
sm=subnet-mask
This tag specifies the client’s subnet mask. subnet-mask is specified as a single IP address.
sr=destination_ip_address gateway_ip_address ...
This tag specifies a list of static routes that the client should put in its routing cache. Each route
consists of a pair of IP addresses. The first address is the destination address, and the second is
the router. Use the gw= option to specify the default route (0.0.0.0) as it is not a legal destina-
tion address.
ss=ip_address
This tag specifies the IP address of a swap server.
Tnnn=generic-data
This is a generic tag where nnn is an RFC1533 option field tag number. Use this option to
configure RFC1533 options not currently supported with bootpd tag names. This option allows
one to immediately take advantage of future extensions to RFC1533. The generic-data data can
be represented as either a stream of hexadecimal numbers or as a quoted string of ASCII charac-
ters. The length of the generic data is automatically determined and inserted into the proper
fields of the RFC1541-style boot reply.
to=offset
This tag specifies the client’s time zone offset in seconds from UTC. The time offset can be either
a signed decimal integer or the keyword
auto which uses the server’s time zone offset. Specify-
ing the to symbol as a boolean has the same effect as specifying auto
as its value.
ts=ip_address_list
This tag specifies the IP addresses of RFC868 Time Protocol servers.
yd=NIS-domain-name
Specifies the name of the client’s NIS domain.
ys=ip_address_list
Specifies the IP address(es) of NIS servers available to the client. Servers should be listed in
order of preference.
vm=magic-cookie
This tag specifies the RFC1048 vendor information magic cookie. magic-cookie can be one of the
following keywords: auto (indicating that vendor information is determined by the client’s
request), rfc1048 (which always forces an RFC1048-style reply), or
cmu (which always forces
a CMU-style reply).
Vnnn=generic-data
This is a generic tag for vendor specific information where nnn is a vendor defined option field
tag number. The generic-data data can be represented as either a stream of hexadecimal
numbers or as a quoted string of ASCII characters. The length of the generic data is automati-
cally determined and inserted into the vendor specific field of the RFC1541-style boot reply.
xd=ip_address_list
This tag specifies the IP addresses of systems that are running the X Window System Display
Manager and are available to the client. Addresses should be listed in order of preference.
xf=ip_address_list
This tag specifies the IP addresses of X window System font servers available to the client.
Servers should be listed in order of preference.
Dhcpdeny Configuration
The configuration file /etc/dhcpdeny contains the list of hardware addresses, one address per line, for
clients that will not be served by our server. If we know about some bad clients in the network and we don’t
want to serve them, add the hardware address of those clients in this file. This file, like other configuration
files, takes # character as the starting of a comment.
