Table 3-1 Tags supported in a BOOTP/DHCP boot file Item RFC 2132 Option Description nodename -- Peripheral name. Identifies an entry point to a list of parameters for a specific peripheral. Must be the first field in an entry. (In the example, nodename is picasso.) ht -- Hardware type. For the HP Jetdirect print server, set this to ether (for Ethernet). Must precede the ha tag. vm -- BOOTP report format (required). Set this to rfc1048. ha -- Hardware address. The media access control (MAC) address or hardware address, which is displayed on the HP Jetdirect configuration page as the HARDWARE ADDRESS. Must be preceded by the ht tag. ip -- IP address tag (required) of the HP Jetdirect print server. sm 1 Subnet mask. Used by the HP Jetdirect print server to identify the portions of an IP address that set the network/subnetwork number and the host address. gw 3 Gateway IP address. The IP address of the default gateway (router) that the HP Jetdirect print server uses for communication with other subnets. ds 6 DNS server's IP address. Specify only a single name server. lg 7 The syslog server's IP address. Specify the server that the HP Jetdirect print server sends syslog messages to. hn 12 Host name. (This parameter does not accept a value.) When present in the file, causes the BOOTP daemon to download the host name to the HP Jetdirect print server. The host name is printed on the HP Jetdirect configuration page, or returned on an SNMP sysName request by a network application. dn 15 Domain name. Specify the domain name for the HP Jetdirect print server (for example, support.hp.com). It does not include the host name, and is not the FQDN (such as printer1.support.hp.com). ef 18 Extensions file. Specify the relative path name of the TFTP configuration file. NOTE: This is similar to the vendor-specific tag T144, described below. na 44 NetBIOS-over-TCP/IP Name Server (NBNS) IP addresses. Specify a primary and secondary server in order of preference. lease-time 51 DHCP IP address lease duration time. Specify the time in seconds. tr 58 DHCP T1 timeout. Specify the DHCP lease renewal time in seconds. tv T144 59 DHCP T2 timeout. Specify the DHCP lease rebind time in seconds. -- Relative path name of the TFTP configuration file. HP proprietary. Specify the path name using double quotes, for example "pathname". Long path names are truncated. For file format information, see TFTP configuration file entries (IPv4) on page 25. NOTE: Standard BOOTP option 18 (extensions file path) also allows a standard tag (ef) for specifying the relative path name of the TFTP configuration file. T145 -- Idle timeout. HP proprietary. Specify the time, in seconds, that a print data connection can remain idle before being closed. The range is 1-3600 seconds. T146 -- Buffer packing. HP proprietary. Set buffer packing for TCP/IP packets. 0 (default): Pack normal data buffers before sending to the printer. 1: Disable buffer packing. Data is sent to the printer when received. 24 Chapter 3 TCP/IP configuration ENWW

is displayed on the HP Jetdirect configuration page as the
HARDWARE ADDRESS
. Must
be preceded by the
ht
tag.
ip
--

DNS server's IP address. Specify only a single name server.
lg
7
The syslog server's IP address. Specify the server that the HP Jetdirect print server sends
syslog messages to.
hn

BOOTP daemon to download the host name to the HP Jetdirect print server. The host name
is printed on the HP Jetdirect configuration page, or returned on an SNMP sysName request
by a network application.
dn
15
Domain name. Specify the domain name for the HP Jetdirect print server (for example,
support.hp.com). It does not include the host name, and is not the FQDN (such as
printer1.support.hp.com).
ef
18
Extensions file. Specify the relative path name of the TFTP configuration file.

using double quotes, for example “pathname”. Long path names are truncated. For file
format information, see
TFTP configuration file entries (IPv4)
on page

.
NOTE:
Standard BOOTP option 18 (extensions file path) also allows a standard tag (
ef
)
for specifying the relative path name of the TFTP configuration file.
T145
--
Idle timeout. HP proprietary. Specify the time, in seconds, that a print data connection can
remain idle before being closed. The range is 1–3600 seconds.
T146
