Active System Manager Release 8.2 Installation Guide
Configuring DHCP or PXE on External Servers
The PXE service requires a DHCP server configured to provide boot server (TFTP PXE server) information and specific start-up file information. ASM PXE implementation uses the iPXE specification so that the configuration details include instructions to allow legacy PXE servers and resources to boot properly to this iPXE implementation.
This section provides information about configuring
DHCP on the following servers. The information includes only the basic
configuration options and declarations required for an iPXE environment.
These details should be used as a cumulative addition to the settings
currently used in your DHCP implementation (if you already have a
DHCP environment).
-
Microsoft Windows 2012 Server. See Configure DHCP on Windows 2012 DHCP Server
-
Microsoft Windows 2008 Server R2. See Configure DHCP on Windows 2008 DHCP Server
-
Linux DHCPd (ISC DHCP). See Configuring DHCP for Linux
- NOTE: If you configure the appliance with multiple interfaces where one is an unrouted network intended to be used for PXE and if you also use the appliance as DHCP server,it is indeterminate whether the correct PXE server IP address will be used in the dhcpd.conf that ASM creates.
- NOTE: Please ensure your DHCP scope has enough IP addresses. The ASM microkernel can temporarily consume between 4-8 IPs during the initial PXE boot process. This is due to NPAR configuration and the number of physical interfaces on the server. These IPs will be released once the OS is installed on the host.
