bootpef(8)                                                       bootpef(8)

NAME
     bootpef - BOOTP Extension File compiler

SYNOPSIS
     bootpef [-c chdir] [-d debug-level] [-f config-file] [client-name
             [...]]

DESCRIPTION
     bootpef builds the Extension Path files described by RFC 1497 (tag
     18). If any client-name arguments are specified, then bootpef compiles
     the extension files for only those clients.

OPTIONS
     -c chdir-path
          Sets the current directory used by bootpef while creating exten-
          sion files. This is useful when the extension file names are
          specified as relative pathnames, and bootpef needs to use the
          same current directory as the TFTP server (typically /tftpboot).

     -d debug-level
          Sets the debug-level variable that controls the amount of debug-
          ging messages generated. For example, -d4 or -d 4 will set the
          debugging level to 4.

     -f config-file
          Set the name of the config file that specifies the option data to
          be sent to each client.
