NAME
bootptest - send BOOTP queries and print responses
SYNOPSIS
bootptest
server-name
[template-file]
DESCRIPTION
bootptest
sends a BOOTP query to the host specified as
server-name
and then waits for and prints out all responses
until an interrupt terminates the program.
The
template-file
may be specified, in which case
bootptest
uses the (binary) contents of this file to initialize the
options
area of the request packet. This feature may be used to
verify that the BOOTP server correctly honors the format
of any option template provided in request packets.
(All response packets should have exactly the same option
format as the request packet if a template was provided.)
