Can you capture the DHCP transaction with Wireshark or 'tcpdump' and filter it for DHCP and share the resulting packets as an e-mail attachment? I don't quite understand what you mean by the client sending an empty boot filename. Do you mean it makes a TFTP request with an empty filename? If so, do you have a Control-B CLI? If so, can you please try: dhcp net0 show filename and report whether or not you got a filename from the DHCP service? > > ... ... ... This NIC probably has an older version of gPXE on it, so we should keep that in mind. Hmmm... Here's a re-send. I somehow messed up the iPXE mailing-list in the carbon-copy list. - Shao Miller -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
