I simple Google query for "dnsmasq pxe proxy" returns very useful results right at the top (at least, it does for me). E.g.: https://n0dy.com/blog/2014/09/14/network-booting-with-dnsmasq-in-proxy-mode/ https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=ProxyDHCP_with_dnsmasq https://manski.net/2016/09/pxe-server-on-existing-network-dhcp-proxy-on-ubuntu/ http://danielboca.blogspot.com/2012/02/boot-linux-from-network-using-pxe-and.html -- Andriy Gapon _______________________________________________ Dnsmasq-discuss mailing list Dnsmasq-discuss@lists.thekelleys.org.uk http://lists.thekelleys.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/dnsmasq-discuss
