Boot File Boot files (Boot Protocol) are used to boot remote systems over the
network. BOOTP messages are encapsulated inside UDP messages so
requests and replies can be forwarded. Each DHCP network pool can use a
different file as needed.
Lease Time If a lease time has been defined for a listed network pool, it displays in an
interval between 1 - 9,999,999 seconds. DHCP leases provide addresses
for defined times to various clients. If a client does not use the leased
address for the defined time, that IP address can be re-assigned to another
DHCP supported client.
