Short for Bootstrap Protocol.

It enables a diskless workstation to discover its own IP address, the IP address of a BOOTP server on the network, and a file to be loaded into memory to boot the machine. This enables the workstation to boot without requiring a hard or floppy disk drive.

Hope this helps!!

For a more indepth discussion of BOOTP see the following link concerning RFC1532 http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/htbin/rfc/rfc1532.html
Hope this helps.
