Advanced Login

[seppim]

Hello,

I set the “fog.advancedlogin” to “All hosts”

I set an own menu item to “Advanced Options”

When I boot in the menu, I see the Advanced Menu item … he asking for a login.
After login, he switch back to the main menu, which looks exactly same as before.

Where is my mistake? I want display a menu item only after login.

Thank you!

If that is what you want to do you need to take a look at iPXE General Configuration -> Advanced Menu settings. Here you can define a custom iPXE script that is being called after the login.

If you don’t have a text field for Advanced menu command then you need to disable your Adblock browser addon.

I set the “fog.advancedlogin” to “All hosts”

I think you need to switch that back to “Advanced Login Required”.

@sebastian-roth Hello Sebastian,

for my unterstanding:
When I choose “Advanced menu” in PXE menu, I log in and get back to the menu and see the menu items which has “Advanced Login Required”.

1. I enable Advanced Menu Login in iPXE General Configuration -> Advanced Menu settings:
   
   now the menu item is displayed:
   

2. I login and hit enter, then this happen:
   

I guess I need to set the “Advanced menu command”? But why is this not out of the box working?

Or did I misunderstood this feature?

Yes, you need to add some custom advanced menu that you want to see after the login. There is no default.

Here is some example code you can start working on:

menu
item --gap -------------- iPXE advanced boot menu --------------
item DBAN Boot and Nuke
item SHELL iPXE Shell
item RETURN Return to previous menu
choose --default RETURN --timeout 10000 target && goto ${target}

:DBAN
kernel ${boot_url}/dban/dban.bzi nuke="dwipe" silent vga=785
boot
goto MENU

:SHELL
shell ||
goto MENU

:RETURN
chain http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/boot.php?mac=${net0/mac} ||
prompt
goto MENU

autoboot
