How to configure ISC dhcpd for gPXE
Defining the gPXE-specific options
Add the following block to the top of your /etc/dhcpd.conf file:
# gPXE-specific encapsulated options # option space gpxe; option gpxe-encap-opts code 175 = encapsulate gpxe; option gpxe.priority code 1 = signed integer 8; option gpxe.keep-san code 8 = unsigned integer 8; option gpxe.no-pxedhcp code 176 = unsigned integer 8; option gpxe.bus-id code 177 = string; option gpxe.bios-drive code 189 = unsigned integer 8; option gpxe.username code 190 = string; option gpxe.password code 191 = string; option gpxe.reverse-username code 192 = string; option gpxe.reverse-password code 193 = string; option gpxe.version code 235 = string; # Other options that may be useful # option iscsi-initiator-iqn code 203 = string;
Using the gPXE-specific options
The gPXE-specific options can be used in the same way as any other DHCP options. For example:
host koala { fixed-address 10.0.0.12; hardware ethernet 00:01:80:34:5e:e4; # Do not wait for a ProxyDHCP reply option gpxe.no-pxedhcp 1; }
