Hi,
I looking for some information on this option how does it work and how to set
this option in the dhcpd.conf file.
I found this information:
This option specifies the length in 512-octet blocks of the default
boot image for the client. The file length is specified as an
unsigned 16-bit integer.
The code for this option is 13, and its length is 2.
Code Len File Size
+-----+-----+-----+-----+
| 13 | 2 | l1 | l2 |
+-----+-----+-----+-----+
But what does it mean ' File Size' of lenght 16-bit ( 16 bit are 65KB) is
very little for a boot-file . What is the default size ?
