That looks like incomplete instructions for that software.
Why don't you post on their forum? Oh wait, there's been 1 post year to date.
And that software has apparently not been updated in over 5 years. Are you sure you want to use that?

Apparently, you can add tftp to OPN to get a PXE server: https://gist.github.com/azhang/d8304d8dd4b4c165b67ab57ae7e1ede0

Or maybe use the info in that page to infer how you need to input data in DHCP options.
The layout on the tftp server has to be standard...


sorry for the long wait, ive been researching into it, basically in the end i didnt have to mess about with my dhcp options/config as i installed DRBL with dnsmasq and part of dnsmasq is proxy dhcp
