Hi,
does anyone have up-to-date information on which bootp/dhcp
tags are used by FreeBSD ?
I am asking because of two reasons:
+ I would like to pass some info from the bootp/dhcp server
to userland, so they can be used at runtime to customize
system's behaviour (specific example: I have ~100 clients
in different labs booting from the same server, where
configuration should be lab-specific but not host-specific.
A bootp server could easily pass the "domain" each host
belong to. I know I could derive this info using the hostname
as a search key, but this would involve an additional configuration
file...).
+ I was going to fix the bootptab manpage and i see that there are
several vendor tags used in bootpc_subr and in etherboot
which are not documented. Even worse, some of those tags are
not consistent across different systems, and even etherboot
and bootpc_subr.c have different ideas on T129 and T130
cheers
luigi
