If a match is found, the server’s response will include the IP address of the device.

Most UNIX operating systems support either the RARP or BOOTP protocol. To find out which protocol your operating system supports, request the manual page for the protocol’s daemon (e.g. man bootpd or man rarpd), or see your network manuals.
