DHCP Setup

The imaging module of Pulse 2 needs PXE functionalities, NFS and TFTP services. For PXE configure the DHCP server on the network to serve the Pulse2 PXE bootmenu.

For example with dhcp3-server in /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf:

 subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
     option broadcast-address 192.168.0.255; # broadcast address
     option domain-name "pulse2.test"; # domain name
     option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.2; # dns servers
     option routers 192.168.0.2; # default gateway
     pool {
         range 192.168.0.170 192.168.0.180;
         filename "/bootloader/pxe_boot";
        next-server 192.168.0.237;
     }
}

• filename and next-server are the relevant options to set.
