RARP gave way to BOOTP which gave way to DHCP for exactly this reason. They all run *below* the IP layer so can be implemented (client-side) relatively easily. Assigning IP, hostname, gateway, nameserver, timeserver, boot server, boot image, etc. are all done, there. (You can operate an ethernet without IP at all!) The problem is: - having a suitable server present on the network (not all will have this -- though most SOHOs will) - conveying the parameters that were assigned by the service to the *human* user (without requiring special knowledge of a special tool which would require more knowledge of the user's operating environment *or* having a UI on the device)
