[![Build Status](https://github.com/tinkerbell/boots/workflows/For%20each%20commit%20and%20PR/badge.svg)](https://github.com/tinkerbell/boots/actions?query=workflow%3A%22For+each+commit+and+PR%22+branch%3Amain)

This service handles DHCP, PXE, tftp, and iPXE for provisions in the Tinkerbell project.
For more information about the Tinkerbell project, see: [tinkerbell.org](https://tinkerbell.org).
Boots is the network boot service in the [Tinkerbell stack](https://tinkerbell.org). It is comprised of the following services.

- DHCP server
- host reservations only
- mac address based lookups
- netboot options support
- backend support
- Kubernetes
- file based
- TFTP server
- serving iPXE binaries
- HTTP server
- serving iPXE binaries and iPXE scripts
- iPXE script serving uses IP authentication
- backend support
- Kubernetes
- file based
- Syslog server
- receives syslog messages and logs them

## Running Boots

As boots runs a DHCP server, it's often asked if it is safe to run without any network isolation; the answer is yes. While boots does run a DHCP server, it only allocates an IP address when it recognizes the mac address of the requesting device.
The DHCP server of Boots serves explicit host reservations only. This means that only hosts that are configured will be served an IP address and network boot details.

## Interoperability with other DHCP servers

It is not recommended, but it is possible for Boots to be run in networks with another DHCP server(s). To get the intended behavior from Boots one of the following must be true.

1. All DHCP servers are configured to serve the same IPAM info as Boots and Boots is the only DHCP server to provide network boot info.

1. All DHCP servers besides Boots are configured to ignore the MAC addresses that Boots is configured to serve.

1. All DHCP servers are configured to serve the same IP address and network boot details as Boots. In this scenario the DHCP functionality of Boots is redundant. It would most likely be recommended to run Boots with the DHCP server functionality disabled (`-dhcp=false`). See the doc on using your existing DHCP service for more details.

### Developing with Standalone Mode
### Developing using the file backend

The quickest way to get started is `docker-compose up`. This will start boots in
standalone mode using the example JSON in the `test/` directory. It also starts
a client container that runs some tests.
The quickest way to get started is `docker-compose up`. This will start Boots using the file backend. This uses the example Yaml file (hardware.yaml) in the `test/` directory. It also starts a client container that runs some tests.

```sh
docker-compose build # build containers
docker-compose up # start the network & services
docker-compose up --build # build images and start the network & services
# it's fine to hit control-C twice for fast shutdown
docker-compose down # stop the network & clean up Docker processes
docker-compose down # stop the network & containers
```

Alternatively you can run boots standalone manually. It requires a few
environment variables for configuration.
Alternatively you can manually run Boots by itself. It requires a few

`test/hardware.yaml` should be safe enough for most developers to
use on the command line locally without getting a call from your network
administrator. That said, you might want to contact them before running a DHCP
server on their network. Best to isolate it in Docker or a VM if you're not
sure.
