To configure LAN parameters using BOOTP

Use this method only on a workstation which is running bootpd, the
BOOTP daemon.
If the following commands yield the results shown below, the BOOTP
protocol is enabled:
$ grep bootp /etc/services
bootps 67/udp
bootpc 68/udp
$ grep bootp /etc/inetd.conf
bootps dgram udp
If the commands did not yield the results shown, you must either add
BOOTP support to your workstation or use a different method to
configure the emulation probe LAN parameters.
