Simple setup

Thread needs solution

I am testing this on my home network. I have a 5 port switch connected to my router. I have a laptop (Lenovo T400) running XP with Snap deploy management console and the PXE server loaded on the same laptop, components are uploaded and the server is enabled. Also connected to the switch is an Asus Eee-pc netbook set to Network (PXE) boot.

When I boot the netbook it displays the Client MAC address, the ip address, the ip of the router and the Proxy ip (the laptop with the PXE server) but never makes the connection to upload the deploy agent or the the master image creator. It times out and then boots to the netbooks OS.

any help

Hello Scott,

Thank you for posting and welcome to the Forum.

It is possible this issue is caused by a failure to access the DHCP server or the DHCP server's settings are incorrect. To localize the issue, could you please create bootable media and see if you can use successfully.

To get to the bottom of this issue, please collect the following information described in this article and contact our Support team directly.

Please let me know if you have additional questions.

Thank you.
