.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
is an implementation of Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) server.
.Nm
works with DHCP server running on another host. The DHCP server
doesn't need to be configured for any PXE specific options.
This means that you can set up network boot environment without
re-configuring existent DHCP server.

.Nm
listens on two well-known ports (67/udp and 68/udp) so the root
privilege is needed to run.
.Pp
With
.Fl d
option,
.Nm
runs on foreground.
This option is useful for debugging.
.Pp
Specify nework interface name
.Pq Li eth0 for example, on Linux
to
.Fl i
option.
.Pp
If the network interface has more than one IP address,
use
.Fl l ,
.Fl t ,
.Fl b
options.
.Fl i
or
.Po Fl l ,
.Fl t
and
.Fl b
option
.Pc
is required.
.Pp
Finally specify the path of Network Bootstrap Program on the TFTP server to
.Ar nbp name
option.
It will be
.Li pxelinux.0
if you are using PXELINUX.
