How to setup Infoblox PXE to work with the KACE Systems Deployment Appliance -
Beschreibung
Configuring Infoblox to allow PXE to a KACE Systems Deployment Appliance (SDA) or Remote Site Appliance (RSA) -
Ursache
When using the Infoblox DHCP service, do not use DHCP options (e.g. option 66/67), use BOOTP options instead.
Note: You may still leverage DHCP option 244 as that is not used during the PXE boot process. It is only used after you are booted into KBE to determine the IP address of the SDA/RSA to map the shares.
-
Lösung
The required fields are located under BOOTP or IPv4 BOOTP/PXE within your network scope
There are 3 fields:
- Boot File
- Next Server
- Boot Server
For UEFI PXE booting, you must configure the Boot File as ipxe.efi
For Legacy/BIOS PXE booting with iPXE, you must configure the Boot File as undionly.kpxeThe Next Server and Boot Server fields will both point to the IP address (NOT hostname or FQDN) of the SDA or RSA in question.
Additionally, you may create a custom DHCP option 244 if you are having issues with mapping to the shares within KBE.
- From the Data Management tab, select the DHCP tab -> Option Spaces tab.
- Select either the DHCP option space or an IPv4 option space that you configured, and then click the Edit icon.
- In the Option Space editor, click the Add icon to add a custom option. In the new row, complete the following:
- Name: Enter KACE SDA Option 244 as the name of the custom DHCP option
- Code: Select 244
- Type: Select ip-address
4. Save the configuration.
You will need to add the custom option to your network scope, and configure the value of KACE SDA Option 244 as the IP address (NOT hostname or FQDN) of the SDA or RSA in question.
