Your second posting to this avail... you'd better learn using the
tools that come with your system:

j@uriah 503% apropos bootp
bootparamd(8) - boot parameter server
bootparams(5)            - boot parameter database
bootpd(8), bootpgw(8)    - Internet Boot Protocol server/gateway
bootpef(8)               - BOOTP Extension File compiler
bootptab(5)              - Internet Bootstrap Protocol server database
bootptest(8)             - send BOOTP queries and print responses

(bootpd(8) is what you're looking for.)
