I'd just use 'bootp-dynamic' alone without the tag qualifier unless
you have specific DHCP pools where you don't want BOOTP enabled. That
looks like you're using the NIC name, which may or may not actually be
the tag in your DHCP config, if you even have a tag at all. Mismatched
tag is my best guess at why that wouldn't work.

That'll do the same as above, so I wouldn't bother. I generally prefer
conf file options over arguments, but that's a matter of personal
preference in wanting all configuration in conf file(s) and retaining
a stock init system.
