Simplified DHCP configuration

– only for homogeneous environment: Only UEFI devices (or only non-UEFI devices) –

Note:

If you are using eLux RP 6 X64 devices with and without UEFI, you will need DHCP policies to select the relevant boot file. For further information, see DHCP configuration for eLux RP 6 X64 devices.

Next to selecting DHCP options for the router, DNS server and domain name which are already required for eLux, for a PXE recovery installation, you need to define the boot server and boot file as DHCP options.

  1. Open the DHCP manager as administrator.
  2. For the relevant DHCP server, select either the Server options, the Scope Options or the Reservations for individual devices, and then click Action > Configure Options… > General.
  3. Edit the following DHCP options:

    Option Value
    066 Boot Server Host Name <IP address of the TFTP server> (normally same as Scout Server IP address)
    067 Bootfile Name grub/pxex64.efi for UEFI devices (x64)grub/pxe.i386 for non-UEFI devices
  4. Confirm with OK..
