# Caution

#

# Omitting a Forward slash (/) when the entry is continued to the next

# line, can cause the interruption of the booting process or the

# incorrect image file to download. Always include forward slashes

# where needed.

#

# Important Note:

#

# If a leading zero (0) is used in the IP address it is calculated as an

# octal number. If the leading character is "x" (upper or lower case),

# it is calculated as a hexadecimal number. For example, if an IP address

# with a base 10 number of 45 is written as .045 in the BOOTPTAB.TXT file,

# the Bootp protocol assigns .037 to the client.

#

# Global entries are defined that specify the parameters used by every device.

# Note that hardware type (ht) is specified first in the global entry.

#

# The following global entry is defined for an Ethernet device. Note that this

# is where a client's subnet mask (sm) and default gateway (gw) are defined.

#

global1|/

|ht=ethernet|/

|hd=c:\opt\images|/

|sm=255.255.255.0|/

|gw=192.0.1.0|

#

# The following sample entry describes a BootP client:

bay1|ht=ethernet|ha=0060fd000000|ip=192.0.0.1|hd=c:\ezlan\images|bf=b450_100.img

# Where:

# host name: bay1

# hardware type: Ethernet

# MAC address: 00-60-FD-00-00-00

# IP address: 192.0.0.1

# home directory of boot file: c:\ezlan\images

# boot file: b450_100.img
