Description
Inside the DNS Server configuration, you have the option to enable Network Booting and specify several options:
IP of next-serevr
Default bios filename
UEFI 32bit filename
UEFI 64bit filename
root-path string
Here is a snippet from the generated dhcpd.conf:
next-server 192.168.0.53;
if option arch = 00:06 {
filename "snponly.efi";
} else if option arch = 00:07 {
filename "snponly.efi";
} else {
filename "undionly.kpxe";
}
However, UEFI 64bit could also be arch 00:09 (verified by using ESXi 6.0 plus an ASUS P8Z77-V motherboard). The code should look like this:
next-server 192.168.0.53;
if option arch = 00:06 {
filename "uefi32.efi";
} else if option arch = 00:07 {
filename "uefi64.efi";
} else if option arch = 00:09 {
filename "uefi64.efi";
} else {
filename "default.pxe";
}
