t. e. The Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) is a computer networking protocol used in Internet Protocol networks to automatically assign an IP address to network devices from a configuration server. The BOOTP was originally defined in RFC 951 published in 1985. While some parts of BOOTP have been effectively superseded by the Dynamic Host ...
It required that a server be present on each individual network link. RARP was superseded by the Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) defined in September 1985. [4] This introduced the concept of a relay agent, which allowed the forwarding of BOOTP packets across networks, allowing one central BOOTP server to serve hosts on many IP subnets.
The Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) was introduced as part of the Wired for Management [2] framework by Intel and is described in the specification published by Intel and SystemSoft. PXE version 2.0 was released in December 1998, and the update 2.1 was made public in September 1999. [3] The PXE environment makes use of several standard ...

RFC 1350. Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) is a simple lockstep File Transfer Protocol which allows a client to get a file from or put a file onto a remote host. One of its primary uses is in the early stages of nodes booting from a local area network. TFTP has been used for this application because it is very simple to implement.
Remote Installation Services. RIS, Remote Installation Services is a Microsoft -supplied server that allows PXE BIOS -enabled computers to remotely execute boot environment variables. These variables are likely computers that are on a company's (or that company's client's) network. RIS is used to create installation images of operating systems ...
NetBoot was a technology from Apple which enabled Macs with capable firmware (i.e. New World ROM) to boot from a network, rather than a local hard disk or optical disc drive. NetBoot is a derived work from the Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP), and is similar in concept to the Preboot Execution Environment. The technology was announced as a part of ...
Boot Service Discovery Protocol ( BSDP) is an Apple -developed, standards-conforming extension of DHCP. [ 1] It allows Macintosh computers to boot from bootable images on a network instead of local storage media such as CD, DVD, or hard disk. The DHCP options used are the "vendor-specific information" option (number 43) and the "vendor class ...
