37 config BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME
38 bool "Send hostname to DNS server"
39 help
40 Some DHCP servers are capable to do a dynamic update of a
41 DNS server. To do this, they need the hostname of the DHCP
42 requester.
43 If CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME is defined, the content
44 of the "hostname" environment variable is passed as
45 option 12 to the DHCP server.

50 Selecting this will allow the Ethernet interface to function even
51 when the ethaddr variable for that interface is unset. In this case,
52 a random MAC address in the locally administered address space is
53 generated. It will be saved to the appropriate environment variable,
54 too.

89 Default TFTP block size.
90 The MTU is typically 1500 for ethernet, so a TFTP block of
91 1468 (MTU minus eth.hdrs) provides a good throughput with
92 almost-MTU block sizes.
93 You can also activate CONFIG_IP_DEFRAG to set a larger block.
94
95 config TFTP_PORT
96 bool "Set TFTP UDP source/destination ports via the environment"
97 help
98 If this is defined, the environment variable tftpsrcp is used to
99 supply the TFTP UDP source port value. If tftpsrcp isn't defined,
100 the normal pseudo-random port number generator is used.
101
102 Also, the environment variable tftpdstp is used to supply the TFTP
103 UDP destination port value. If tftpdstp isn't defined, the normal
104 port 69 is used.
105
106 The purpose for tftpsrcp is to allow a TFTP server to blindly start
107 the TFTP transfer using the pre-configured target IP address and UDP
108 port. This has the effect of "punching through" the (Windows XP)
109 firewall, allowing the remainder of the TFTP transfer to proceed
110 normally. A better solution is to properly configure the firewall,
111 but sometimes that is not allowed.

127 By default, TFTP progress bar is increased for each received UDP
128 frame, which can lead into long time being spent for sending
129 data over the UART. Enabling this option, TFTP queries the file
130 size from server, and if supported, limits the progress bar to
131 50 characters total which fits on single line.
