What is BOOTP?
BOOTP is the abbreviation of BOOT strap Protocol. This protocol is used
by the client device in the TCP/IP network to make the network settings
assigned from the server.
If there is a BOOTP server in the same network as the device running as
the BOOTP client, an IP address is assigned to the device connected as
the BOOTP client.
