IPXE help
-
So I take it if “it was working before” you could image but you were having issues after deployment with the machine just boot looping through fog?
Maybe try this post [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/chainloading-ipxe.10915/[/url]

No.
I successfully imaged 30 machines in location B. They did exactly what they were supposed to and are currently running.
I cannot get FOG to even start on the machines in location A (where the server is located). When the bios loads and starts getting the info from the server it fails to load something from iPXE. Here is a screen shot.

It never brings up the FOG menu[url=“/_imported_xf_attachments/1/1300_image.jpg?:”]image.jpg[/url]

Are you sure its not a firewall issue between subnets?

It shouldn’t be. Our isp controls our firewall, but they allow this sort of traffic. That doesn’t explain whty it would work on external to it subnets and not it’s own. -
This is what a successful boot looks like before the FOG menu

Sounds like your internal subnet needs to have the ip-helper’s setup to point back to that ranges DHCP scope as well.

How do I go about doing that?
-
It could be something simpler maybe, but ip-helpers depend on the switching equipment you have.
For your DHCP server, it’s handing out the undionly.kpxe telling the dhcp scope where to look at if it is pxe booted. Maybe the “Option 66/67” for your localized ip range does not point back to the fog server?
-
option 66/67 are configured correctly (pointing at 10.50.10.98 (the FOG server)) and they are the same on both of my DHCP servers (one is a failover if the other goes offline, and on a different subnet). Is there anything more I should be putting in besides the IP address?
-
Here is my log file of the current install if it helps.

Building A successfully gets DHCP addresses etc as well ?
