starting up the terminal initially in a network-boot environment. The resources in this category use the following 6 network protocols: BOOTP NFS DHCP DNS TFTP Time Server A brief instead of BOOTP for network boot. Note BOOTP is not currently supported by Microsoft NT, although it is - HP t1000 | T1500/T1510 Windows-based Terminal Network Installation Guide - Page 20
