I think the first statement you are referring to is when DHCP and the PXE service point reside on the same server. That is the only situation where you would be forced to configure the dhcp options. http://blogs.technet.com/b/system_center_configuration_manager_operating_system_deployment_support_blog/archive/2011/10/14/troubleshooting-the-pxe-service-point-and-wds-in-configuration-manager-2007.aspx
"The only exception where a DHCP Option needs to be used is when DHCP and WDS reside on the same server. In this instance, DHCP Option 60, and only DHCP Option 60, needs to be set. DHCP Options 66 and 67 should still NOT be set in this scenario. For more information, please see the below section "Co-hosting DHCP and WDS On The Same Server"." This still applies to 2012 when dealing with PXE, IPHelpers and scope options if necessary. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Steve Wouden Sent: Tuesday, August 27, 2013 6:38 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [mssms] DHCP / PXE / SCCM 2012 I,ve been using SMS 2003 for almost 9 years. As far as I know, it was a must to configure the DHCP server with the PXE options 66 and 67 for PXE, although everything is on the same subnet. Configure ip helpers only when crossing subnets or vlans. 2 years ago I upgraded to SCCM 2007, and changed the values for those PXE options. Now I'm in the process of migrating to SCCM 2012, and came across a few articles claiming that I don't have to configure the PXE options on the DHCP server. And that those options also are not supported by Microsoft.. But there are more articles and documents on the internet, saying to configure the PXE options on the DHCP server. Confusing.. Now I know( I think), that I don't need to configure the DCHP server with the PXE settings. Just looking for some confirmation. And SCCM PXE Service point handling the PXE request, is that faster, better, more secure??
