-A bootstrap is a process that installs the chef\-client on a target system so that it can run as a chef\-client and communicate with a Chef server\&.

-Every request made by the chef\-client to the Chef server must be an authenticated request using the Chef server API and a private key. When the chef\-client makes a request to the Chef server, the chef\-client authenticates each request using a private key located in \fB/etc/chef/client.pem\fP\&.
-.sp
-However, during the first chef\-client run, this private key does not exist. Instead, the chef\-client will attempt to use the private key assigned to the chef\-validator, located in \fB/etc/chef/validation.pem\fP\&. (If, for any reason, the chef\-validator is unable to make an authenticated request to the Chef server, the initial chef\-client run will fail.)
-.sp
-During the initial chef\-client run, the chef\-client will register with the Chef server using the private key assigned to the chef\-validator, after which the chef\-client will obtain a \fBclient.pem\fP private key for all future authentication requests to the Chef server\&.
-.sp
-After the initial chef\-client run has completed successfully, the chef\-validator is no longer required and may be deleted from the node. Use the \fBdelete_validation\fP recipe found in the \fBchef\-client\fP cookbook (\fI\%https://github.com/chef\-cookbooks/chef\-client\fP) to remove the chef\-validator\&.
-.sp
-The \fBknife client\fP subcommand is used to manage an API client list and their associated RSA public key\-pairs. This allows authentication requests to be made to the Chef server by any entity that uses the Chef server API, such as the chef\-client and knife\&.
-.SH COMMON OPTIONS

+.sp
+Every request made by the chef\-client to the Chef server must be an authenticated request using the Chef server API and a private key. When the chef\-client makes a request to the Chef server, the chef\-client authenticates each request using a private key located in \fB/etc/chef/client.pem\fP\&.
+.sp
+However, during the first chef\-client run, this private key does not exist. Instead, the chef\-client will attempt to use the private key assigned to the chef\-validator, located in \fB/etc/chef/validation.pem\fP\&. (If, for any reason, the chef\-validator is unable to make an authenticated request to the Chef server, the initial chef\-client run will fail.)
+.sp
+During the initial chef\-client run, the chef\-client will register with the Chef server using the private key assigned to the chef\-validator, after which the chef\-client will obtain a \fBclient.pem\fP private key for all future authentication requests to the Chef server\&.
+.sp
+After the initial chef\-client run has completed successfully, the chef\-validator is no longer required and may be deleted from the node. Use the \fBdelete_validation\fP recipe found in the \fBchef\-client\fP cookbook (\fI\%https://github.com/chef\-cookbooks/chef\-client\fP) to remove the chef\-validator\&.
+.sp
+The \fBknife client\fP subcommand is used to manage an API client list and their associated RSA public key\-pairs. This allows authentication requests to be made to the Chef server by any entity that uses the Chef server API, such as the chef\-client and knife\&.
+.SH COMMON OPTIONS
+.sp
+The following options may be used with any of the arguments available to the \fBknife client\fP subcommand:
+.INDENT 0.0
+.TP
+.B \fB\-\-chef\-zero\-port PORT\fP
+The port on which chef\-zero will listen.
+.TP
+.B \fB\-c CONFIG_FILE\fP, \fB\-\-config CONFIG_FILE\fP
+The configuration file to use.
+.TP
+.B \fB\-d\fP, \fB\-\-disable\-editing\fP
+Use to prevent the $EDITOR from being opened and to accept data as\-is.
+.TP
+.B \fB\-\-defaults\fP
+Use to have knife use the default value instead of asking a user to provide one.
+.TP
+.B \fB\-e EDITOR\fP, \fB\-\-editor EDITOR\fP
+The $EDITOR that is used for all interactive commands.
+.TP
+.B \fB\-E ENVIRONMENT\fP, \fB\-\-environment ENVIRONMENT\fP
+The name of the environment. When this option is added to a command, the command will run only against the named environment.
+.TP
+.B \fB\-F FORMAT\fP, \fB\-\-format FORMAT\fP
+The output format: \fBsummary\fP (default), \fBtext\fP, \fBjson\fP, \fByaml\fP, and \fBpp\fP\&.
+.TP
+.B \fB\-h\fP, \fB\-\-help\fP
+Shows help for the command.
+.TP
+.B \fB\-k KEY\fP, \fB\-\-key KEY\fP
+The private key that knife will use to sign requests made by the API client to the Chef server\&.
+.TP
+.B \fB\-\-[no\-]color\fP
+Use to view colored output.
+.TP
+.B \fB\-\-print\-after\fP
+Use to show data after a destructive operation.
+.TP
+.B \fB\-s URL\fP, \fB\-\-server\-url URL\fP
+The URL for the Chef server\&.
+.TP
+.B \fB\-u USER\fP, \fB\-\-user USER\fP
+The user name used by knife to sign requests made by the API client to the Chef server\&. Authentication will fail if the user name does not match the private key.
+.TP
+.B \fB\-V\fP, \fB\-\-verbose\fP
+Set for more verbose outputs. Use \fB\-VV\fP for maximum verbosity.
+.TP
+.B \fB\-v\fP, \fB\-\-version\fP
+The version of the chef\-client\&.
+.TP
+.B \fB\-y\fP, \fB\-\-yes\fP
+Use to respond to all confirmation prompts with "Yes". knife will not ask for confirmation.
+.TP
+.B \fB\-z\fP, \fB\-\-local\-mode\fP
+Use to run the chef\-client in local mode. This allows all commands that work against the Chef server to also work against the local chef\-repo\&.
+.UNINDENT
