Title:	Linux: BOOTPROTO in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/*
Summary:	Interface configuration (ifcfg) files control the software;interfaces for individual network devices. As the system boots, it uses these files to determine;what interfaces to bring up and how to configure them. These files are usually named ifcfg-name,;where the suffix name refers to the name of the device that the configuration file controls. By;convention, the ifcfg file's suffix is the same as the string given by the DEVICE directive in the;configuration file itself.;;The BOOTPROTO setting is used to determine which protocol to use at boot time:;; - none: No boot-time protocol should be used;; - bootp: The bootp now pump protocol should be used;; - dhcp: The dhcp protocol should be used;; - static: Use static IP address
