This is clipped from Arachne.cfg v1.60b1
------------------------------------------
;IP_Address n.n.n.n ... fixed IP address
;IP_Address PPP ... for PPP.EXE and PPPD.EXE (get address from PPP.LOG)
;IP_Address BOOTP ... WatTcp attepmts to use BOOTP protocol
;IP_Address %enviro% ... Minuet style (enviroment variable, like %MYIP%)
;IP_Address WATTCP ... use ONLY values from TCPconfig (variable "my_ip")
------------------------------------------
And this is clipped from Arachne.cfg v1.10
------------------------------------------
;[!][*] IP address - REQUIRED ! (unless "Connection NUL")
;;n.n.n.n ... fixed IP address
;;BOOTP ... WatTcp attepmts to do BOOTP (will not work with PPP.EXE)
;;PPP ... Arachne gets IP address from file PPP.LOG
;;WATTCP ... Arachne uses WatTcp configuration (MY_IP in TCPconfig)
;;%enviro% ... Minuet style (enviroment variable, like %MYIP%)
------------------------------------------
Looks to me as if "BOOTP" has been there for a long time.<g>
