Buffer option is to create a larger boundary from your existing boundary layer so that you could provide some margin to your intended area/boundary of interest. It could be done in miles, feet or whatever you choose. The boundary options are ways on how you choose objects in your boundary. You could choose objects using a circular boundary, a rectangular boundary, or choose objects inside a boundary in a specific layer.
