The three important attributes /etc/netboot/wanboot.conf
allows specification for are root_server, root_file and
boot_file. For example -

root_server=http://10.6.68.21:5555/cgi-bin/wanboot-cgi
root_file=/export/home/images/ws_sparc_test/boot/boot_archive
boot_file=/export/home/images/ws_sparc_test/platform/sun4v/wanboot

With the required arguments to create-client (service name
and imagepath), I think all of these can be ascertained.
