       Title     : Clarifications and Extensions for the Bootstrap 
                   Protocol

Some aspects of the BOOTP protocol were rather loosely-defined in its 
original specification.  In particular, only a general description was
provided for the behavior of "BOOTP relay agents" (originally called 
"BOOTP forwarding agents").  The client behavior description also 
suffered in certain ways.  This memo attempts to clarify and 
strengthenthe specification in these areas.

In addition, new issues have arisen since the original specification 
was written.  This memo also attempts to address some of these.
