I am trying to use dnsmasq (on Debian) to do BOOTP and TFTP in order to netboot some Microtik RB112 boards. But I am having some problems.
I have the board on the other end of a USB ethernet adapter, quite separate from the rest of my network to keep things simple. I have configured the usb ethernet adapter to have an address of 192.168.6.254. In a local file I have a stripped down dnsmasq.conf which reads:- # Configuration file for dnsmasq to boot rb100 # interface=usb-rb1xx dhcp-boot=vmlinux dhcp-host=00:05:42:08:*.*,192.168.6.1 enable-tftp tftp-root=/var/lib/tftpd/rb1xx I then start dnsmasq with the following command:- sudo dnsmasq -C dnsmasq.rb100 -d But it never replies to the BOOTP request. Anyone got any ideas as to how to get this running? David
