|Etherboot version 4.7.21 surprisingly offers a |maximum message size of 1572. I think that is |72 bytes too large for ethernet, unless he'll |accept multiple packets. It will be limited by the MTU of the transmitting interface anyway. No DHCP server should send out a packet that large. But probably MAX_BOOTP_EXTLEN should be defined as ETH_FRAME_LEN-ETH_HLEN-sizeof(struct iphdr)-sizeof(struct udphdr)-sizeof(struct bootp_t) I'll change it to that in .22. Thanks. |
