Some devices, like diskless workstations, lightweight clients, and switches, have the ability to boot from the network rather than relying on a local hard drive. Since these devices don't heavily rely on local storage during regular operations and lack hard drives, they still require a boot process. Network booting through protocols such as BOOTP, PXE, or BSDP provides an efficient alternative for these devices. TFTP is commonly used to distribute the necessary boot file to these clients.
