+
+ BOOTSTRAP PROTOCOL (BOOTP)
+
+
+1. Status of this Memo
+
+ This RFC suggests a proposed protocol for the ARPA-Internet
+ community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.
+ Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
+
+2. Overview
+
+ This RFC describes an IP/UDP bootstrap protocol (BOOTP) which allows
+ a diskless client machine to discover its own IP address, the address
+ of a server host, and the name of a file to be loaded into memory and
+ executed. The bootstrap operation can be thought of as consisting of
+ TWO PHASES. This RFC describes the first phase, which could be
+ labeled 'address determination and bootfile selection'. After this
+ address and filename information is obtained, control passes to the
+ second phase of the bootstrap where a file transfer occurs. The file
+ transfer will typically use the TFTP protocol [9], since it is
+ intended that both phases reside in PROM on the client. However
+ BOOTP could also work with other protocols such as SFTP [3] or
+ FTP [6].
+
+ We suggest that the client's PROM software provide a way to do a
+ complete bootstrap without 'user' interaction. This is the type of
+ boot that would occur during an unattended power-up. A mechanism
+ should be provided for the user to manually supply the necessary
+ address and filename information to bypass the BOOTP protocol and
+ enter the file transfer phase directly. If non-volatile storage is
+ available, we suggest keeping default settings there and bypassing
+ the BOOTP protocol unless these settings cause the file transfer
+ phase to fail. If the cached information fails, the bootstrap should
+ fall back to phase 1 and use BOOTP.
+
+ Here is a brief outline of the protocol:
+
+ 1. A single packet exchange is performed. Timeouts are used to
+ retransmit until a reply is received. The same packet field
+ layout is used in both directions. Fixed length fields of maximum
+ reasonable length are used to simplify structure definition and
+ parsing.
+
+ 2. An 'opcode' field exists with two values. The client
+ broadcasts a 'bootrequest' packet. The server then answers with a
+ 'bootreply' packet. The bootrequest contains the client's
+ hardware address and its IP address, if known.
+
+
+Croft & Gilmore [Page 1]
+
+
+
+RFC 951 September 1985
+Bootstrap Protocol
+
+
+ 3. The request can optionally contain the name of the server the
+ client wishes to respond. This is so the client can force the
+ boot to occur from a specific host (e.g. if multiple versions of
+ the same bootfile exist or if the server is in a far distant
+ net/domain). The client does not have to deal with name / domain
+ services; instead this function is pushed off to the BOOTP server.
+
+ 4. The request can optionally contain the 'generic' filename to be
+ booted. For example 'unix' or 'ethertip'. When the server sends
+ the bootreply, it replaces this field with the fully qualified
+ path name of the appropriate boot file. In determining this name,
+ the server may consult his own database correlating the client's
+ address and filename request, with a particular boot file
+ customized for that client. If the bootrequest filename is a null
+ string, then the server returns a filename field indicating the
+ 'default' file to be loaded for that client.
+
+ 5. In the case of clients who do not know their IP addresses, the
+ server must also have a database relating hardware address to IP
+ address. This client IP address is then placed into a field in
+ the bootreply.
+
+ 6. Certain network topologies (such as Stanford's) may be such
+ that a given physical cable does not have a TFTP server directly
+ attached to it (e.g. all the gateways and hosts on a certain cable
+ may be diskless). With the cooperation of neighboring gateways,
+ BOOTP can allow clients to boot off of servers several hops away,
+ through these gateways. See the section 'Booting Through
+ Gateways' below. This part of the protocol requires no special
+ action on the part of the client. Implementation is optional and
+ requires a small amount of additional code in gateways and
+ servers.
+
+3. Packet Format
+
+ All numbers shown are decimal, unless indicated otherwise. The BOOTP
+ packet is enclosed in a standard IP [8] UDP [7] datagram. For
+ simplicity it is assumed that the BOOTP packet is never fragmented.
+ Any numeric fields shown are packed in 'standard network byte order',
+ i.e. high order bits are sent first.
+
+ In the IP header of a bootrequest, the client fills in its own IP
+ source address if known, otherwise zero. When the server address is
+ unknown, the IP destination address will be the 'broadcast address'
+ 255.255.255.255. This address means 'broadcast on the local cable,
+ (I don't know my net number)' [4].
+
+
+
+Croft & Gilmore [Page 2]
+
+
+
+RFC 951 September 1985
+Bootstrap Protocol
+
+
+ The UDP header contains source and destination port numbers. The
+ BOOTP protocol uses two reserved port numbers, 'BOOTP client' (68)
+ and 'BOOTP server' (67). The client sends requests using 'BOOTP
+ server' as the destination port; this is usually a broadcast. The
+ server sends replies using 'BOOTP client' as the destination port;
+ depending on the kernel or driver facilities in the server, this may
+ or may not be a broadcast (this is explained further in the section
+ titled 'Chicken/Egg issues' below). The reason TWO reserved ports
+ are used, is to avoid 'waking up' and scheduling the BOOTP server
+ daemons, when a bootreply must be broadcast to a client. Since the
+ server and other hosts won't be listening on the 'BOOTP client' port,
+ any such incoming broadcasts will be filtered out at the kernel
+ level. We could not simply allow the client to pick a 'random' port
+ number for the UDP source port field; since the server reply may be
+ broadcast, a randomly chosen port number could confuse other hosts
+ that happened to be listening on that port.
+
+ The UDP length field is set to the length of the UDP plus BOOTP
+ portions of the packet. The UDP checksum field can be set to zero by
+ the client (or server) if desired, to avoid this extra overhead in a
+ PROM implementation. In the 'Packet Processing' section below the
+ phrase '[UDP checksum.]' is used whenever the checksum might be
+ verified/computed.

+
+4. Chicken / Egg Issues
+
+ How can the server send an IP datagram to the client, if the client
+ doesnt know its own IP address (yet)? Whenever a bootreply is being
+ sent, the transmitting machine performs the following operations:
+
+ 1. If the client knows its own IP address ('ciaddr' field is
+ nonzero), then the IP can be sent 'as normal', since the client
+ will respond to ARPs [5].
+
+ 2. If the client does not yet know its IP address (ciaddr zero),
+ then the client cannot respond to ARPs sent by the transmitter of
+ the bootreply. There are two options:
+
+ a. If the transmitter has the necessary kernel or driver hooks
+
+
+Croft & Gilmore [Page 4]
+
+
+
+RFC 951 September 1985
+Bootstrap Protocol
+
+
+ to 'manually' construct an ARP address cache entry, then it can
+ fill in an entry using the 'chaddr' and 'yiaddr' fields. Of
+ course, this entry should have a timeout on it, just like any
+ other entry made by the normal ARP code itself. The
+ transmitter of the bootreply can then simply send the bootreply
+ to the client's IP address. UNIX (4.2 BSD) has this
+ capability.
+
+ b. If the transmitter lacks these kernel hooks, it can simply
+ send the bootreply to the IP broadcast address on the
+ appropriate interface. This is only one additional broadcast
+ over the previous case.
+
+5. Client Use of ARP
+
+ The client PROM must contain a simple implementation of ARP, e.g. the
+ address cache could be just one entry in size. This will allow a
+ second-phase-only boot (TFTP) to be performed when the client knows
+ the IP addresses and bootfile name.
+
+ Any time the client is expecting to receive a TFTP or BOOTP reply, it
+ should be prepared to answer an ARP request for its own IP to
+ hardware address mapping (if known).
+
+ Since the bootreply will contain (in the hardware encapsulation) the
+ hardware source address of the server/gateway, the client MAY be able
+ to avoid sending an ARP request for the server/gateway IP address to
+ be used in the following TFTP phase. However this should be treated
+ only as a special case, since it is desirable to still allow a
+ second-phase-only boot as described above.
+
+6. Comparison to RARP
+
+ An earlier protocol, Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP) [1]
+ was proposed to allow a client to determine its IP address, given
+ that it knew its hardware address. However RARP had the disadvantage
+ that it was a hardware link level protocol (not IP/UDP based). This
+ means that RARP could only be implemented on hosts containing special
+ kernel or driver modifications to access these 'raw' packets. Since
+ there are many network kernels existent now, with each source
+ maintained by different organizations, a boot protocol that does not
+ require kernel modifications is a decided advantage.
+
+ BOOTP provides this hardware to IP address lookup function, in
+ addition to the other useful features described in the sections
+ above.

+
+
+7. Packet Processing
+
+ 7.1. Client Transmission
+
+ Before setting up the packet for the first time, it is a good idea
+ to clear the entire packet buffer to all zeros; this will place
+ all fields in their default state. The client then creates a
+ packet with the following fields.
+
+ The IP destination address is set to 255.255.255.255. (the
+ broadcast address) or to the server's IP address (if known). The
+ IP source address and 'ciaddr' are set to the client's IP address
+ if known, else 0. The UDP header is set with the proper length;
+ source port = 'BOOTP client' port destination port = 'BOOTP
+ server' port.
+
+ 'op' is set to '1', BOOTREQUEST. 'htype' is set to the hardware
+ address type as assigned in the ARP section of the "Assigned
+ Numbers" RFC. 'hlen' is set to the length of the hardware address,
+ e.g. '6' for 10mb ethernet.
+
+ 'xid' is set to a 'random' transaction id. 'secs' is set to the
+ number of seconds that have elapsed since the client has started
+ booting. This will let the servers know how long a client has
+ been trying. As the number gets larger, certain servers may feel
+ more 'sympathetic' towards a client they don't normally service.
+ If a client lacks a suitable clock, it could construct a rough
+ estimate using a loop timer. Or it could choose to simply send
+ this field as always a fixed value, say 100 seconds.
+
+ If the client knows its IP address, 'ciaddr' (and the IP source
+ address) are set to this value. 'chaddr' is filled in with the
+ client's hardware address.
+
+ If the client wishes to restrict booting to a particular server
+ name, it may place a null-terminated string in 'sname'. The name
+ used should be any of the allowable names or nicknames of the
+ desired host.
+
+ The client has several options for filling the 'file' name field.
+ If left null, the meaning is 'I want to boot the default file for
+ my machine'. A null file name can also mean 'I am only interested
+ in finding out client/server/gateway IP addresses, I dont care
+ about file names'.
+
+ The field can also be a 'generic' name such as 'unix' or
+
+
+
+Croft & Gilmore [Page 6]
+
+
+
+RFC 951 September 1985
+Bootstrap Protocol
+
+
+ 'gateway'; this means 'boot the named program configured for my
+ machine'. Finally the field can be a fully directory qualified
+ path name.
+
+ The 'vend' field can be filled in by the client with
+ vendor-specific strings or structures. For example the machine
+ hardware type or serial number may be placed here. However the
+ operation of the BOOTP server should not DEPEND on this
+ information existing.
+
+ If the 'vend' field is used, it is recommended that a 4 byte
+ 'magic number' be the first item within 'vend'. This lets a
+ server determine what kind of information it is seeing in this
+ field. Numbers can be assigned by the usual 'magic number'
+ process --you pick one and it's magic. A different magic number
+ could be used for bootreply's than bootrequest's to allow the
+ client to take special action with the reply information.
+
+ [UDP checksum.]
+
+ 7.2. Client Retransmission Strategy
+
+ If no reply is received for a certain length of time, the client
+ should retransmit the request. The time interval must be chosen
+ carefully so as not to flood the network. Consider the case of a
+ cable containing 100 machines that are just coming up after a
+ power failure. Simply retransmitting the request every four
+ seconds will inundate the net.
+
+ As a possible strategy, you might consider backing off
+ exponentially, similar to the way ethernet backs off on a
+ collision. So for example if the first packet is at time 0:00,
+ the second would be at :04, then :08, then :16, then :32, then
+ :64. You should also randomize each time; this would be done
+ similar to the ethernet specification by starting with a mask and
+ 'and'ing that with with a random number to get the first backoff.
+ On each succeeding backoff, the mask is increased in length by one
+ bit. This doubles the average delay on each backoff.
+
+ After the 'average' backoff reaches about 60 seconds, it should be
+ increased no further, but still randomized.
+
+ Before each retransmission, the client should update the 'secs'
+ field. [UDP checksum.]
+
+
+
+
+
+Croft & Gilmore [Page 7]
+
+
+
+RFC 951 September 1985
+Bootstrap Protocol
+
+
+ 7.3. Server Receives BOOTREQUEST
+
+ [UDP checksum.] If the UDP destination port does not match the
+ 'BOOTP server' port, discard the packet.
+
+ If the server name field (sname) is null (no particular server
+ specified), or sname is specified and matches our name or
+ nickname, then continue with packet processing.
+
+ If the sname field is specified, but does not match 'us', then
+ there are several options:
+
+ 1. You may choose to simply discard this packet.
+
+ 2. If a name lookup on sname shows it to be on this same cable,
+ discard the packet.
+
+ 3. If sname is on a different net, you may choose to forward
+ the packet to that address. If so, check the 'giaddr' (gateway
+ address) field. If 'giaddr' is zero, fill it in with my
+ address or the address of a gateway that can be used to get to
+ that net. Then forward the packet.
+
+ If the client IP address (ciaddr) is zero, then the client does
+ not know its own IP address. Attempt to lookup the client
+ hardware address (chaddr, hlen, htype) in our database. If no
+ match is found, discard the packet. Otherwise we now have an IP
+ address for this client; fill it into the 'yiaddr' (your IP
+ address) field.
+
+ We now check the boot file name field (file). The field will be
+ null if the client is not interested in filenames, or wants the
+ default bootfile. If the field is non-null, it is used as a
+ lookup key in a database, along with the client's IP address. If
+ there is a default file or generic file (possibly indexed by the
+ client address) or a fully-specified path name that matches, then
+ replace the 'file' field with the fully-specified path name of the
+ selected boot file. If the field is non-null and no match was
+ found, then the client is asking for a file we dont have; discard
+ the packet, perhaps some other BOOTP server will have it.
+
+ The 'vend' vendor-specific data field should now be checked and if
+ a recognized type of data is provided, client-specific actions
+ should be taken, and a response placed in the 'vend' data field of
+ the reply packet. For example, a workstation client could provide
+
+
+
+
+Croft & Gilmore [Page 8]
+
+
+
+RFC 951 September 1985
+Bootstrap Protocol
+
+
+ an authentication key and receive from the server a capability for
+ remote file access, or a set of configuration options, which can
+ be passed to the operating system that will shortly be booted in.
+
+ Place my (server) IP address in the 'siaddr' field. Set the 'op'
+ field to BOOTREPLY. The UDP destination port is set to 'BOOTP
+ client'. If the client address 'ciaddr' is nonzero, send the
+ packet there; else if the gateway address 'giaddr' is nonzero, set
+ the UDP destination port to 'BOOTP server' and send the packet to
+ 'giaddr'; else the client is on one of our cables but it doesnt
+ know its own IP address yet --use a method described in the 'Egg'
+ section above to send it to the client. If 'Egg' is used and we
+ have multiple interfaces on this host, use the 'yiaddr' (your IP
+ address) field to figure out which net (cable/interface) to send
+ the packet to. [UDP checksum.]
+
+ 7.4. Server/Gateway Receives BOOTREPLY
+
+ [UDP checksum.] If 'yiaddr' (your [the client's] IP address)
+ refers to one of our cables, use one of the 'Egg' methods above to
+ forward it to the client. Be sure to send it to the 'BOOTP
+ client' UDP destination port.
+
+ 7.5. Client Reception
+
+ Don't forget to process ARP requests for my own IP address (if I
+ know it). [UDP checksum.] The client should discard incoming
+ packets that: are not IP/UDPs addressed to the boot port; are not
+ BOOTREPLYs; do not match my IP address (if I know it) or my
+ hardware address; do not match my transaction id. Otherwise we
+ have received a successful reply. 'yiaddr' will contain my IP
+ address, if I didnt know it before. 'file' is the name of the
+ file name to TFTP 'read request'. The server address is in
+ 'siaddr'. If 'giaddr' (gateway address) is nonzero, then the
+ packets should be forwarded there first, in order to get to the
+ server.
+
+8. Booting Through Gateways
+
+ This part of the protocol is optional and requires some additional
+ code in cooperating gateways and servers, but it allows cross-gateway
+ booting. This is mainly useful when gateways are diskless machines.
+ Gateways containing disks (e.g. a UNIX machine acting as a gateway),
+ might as well run their own BOOTP/TFTP servers.
+
+ Gateways listening to broadcast BOOTREQUESTs may decide to forward or
+ rebroadcast these requests 'when appropriate'. For example, the
+
+
+Croft & Gilmore [Page 9]
+
+
+
+RFC 951 September 1985
+Bootstrap Protocol
+
+
+ gateway could have, as part of his configuration tables, a list of
+ other networks or hosts to receive a copy of any broadcast
+ BOOTREQUESTs. Even though a 'hops' field exists, it is a poor idea
+ to simply globally rebroadcast the requests, since broadcast loops
+ will almost certainly occur.
+
+ The forwarding could begin immediately, or wait until the 'secs'
+ (seconds client has been trying) field passes a certain threshold.
+
+ If a gateway does decide to forward the request, it should look at
+ the 'giaddr' (gateway IP address) field. If zero, it should plug its
+ own IP address (on the receiving cable) into this field. It may also
+ use the 'hops' field to optionally control how far the packet is
+ reforwarded. Hops should be incremented on each forwarding. For
+ example, if hops passes '3', the packet should probably be discarded.
+ [UDP checksum.]
+
+ Here we have recommended placing this special forwarding function in
+ the gateways. But that does not have to be the case. As long as
+ some 'BOOTP forwarding agent' exists on the net with the booting
+ client, the agent can do the forwarding when appropriate. Thus this
+ service may or may not be co-located with the gateway.
+
+ In the case of a forwarding agent not located in the gateway, the
+ agent could save himself some work by plugging the broadcast address
+ of the interface receiving the bootrequest into the 'giaddr' field.
+ Thus the reply would get forwarded using normal gateways, not
+ involving the forwarding agent. Of course the disadvantage here is
+ that you lose the ability to use the 'Egg' non-broadcast method of
+ sending the reply, causing extra overhead for every host on the
+ client cable.
+
+9. Sample BOOTP Server Database
+
+ As a suggestion, we show a sample text file database that the BOOTP
+ server program might use. The database has two sections, delimited
+ by a line containing an percent in column 1. The first section
+ contains a 'default directory' and mappings from generic names to
+ directory/pathnames. The first generic name in this section is the
+ 'default file' you get when the bootrequest contains a null 'file'
+ string.
+
+ The second section maps hardware addresstype/address into an
+ ipaddress. Optionally you can also overide the default generic name
+ by supplying a ipaddress specific genericname. A 'suffix' item is
+ also an option; if supplied, any generic names specified by the
+ client will be accessed by first appending 'suffix' to the 'pathname'
+
+
+Croft & Gilmore [Page 10]
+
+
+
+RFC 951 September 1985
+Bootstrap Protocol
+
+
+ appropriate to that generic name. If that file is not found, then
+ the plain 'pathname' will be tried. This 'suffix' option allows a
+ whole set of custom generics to be setup without a lot of effort.
+ Below is shown the general format; fields are delimited by one or
+ more spaces or tabs; trailing empty fields may be omitted; blank
+ lines and lines beginning with '#' are ignored.
+
+ # comment line
+
+ homedirectory
+ genericname1 pathname1
+ genericname2 pathname2
+ ...
+
+ % end of generic names, start of address mappings
+
+ hostname1 hardwaretype hardwareaddr1 ipaddr1 genericname suffix
+ hostname2 hardwaretype hardwareaddr2 ipaddr2 genericname suffix
+ ...
+
+ Here is a specific example. Note the 'hardwaretype' number is the
+ same as that shown in the ARP section of the 'Assigned Numbers' RFC.
+ The 'hardwaretype' and 'ipaddr' numbers are in decimal;
+ 'hardwareaddr' is in hex.
