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 extension 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 debugging 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.
