I’m using 1.2.0. It might be a DHCP issue. I tried to use gPXE and when I use that it says no connection is available. I’m not familiar with Linux at all. How can I check if DHCP is properly configured and if there are any leases?

Unable to get PXE menu?
Hello,
I’m brand new to FOG. I setup a Linux machine using Ubuntu 12.04 and the latest version of FOG. I’m using the same machine for DHCP and I believe that is setup correctly. It has a static IP address. I’m using an old Cisco switch (not sure of the config on it, should be blank.) When I boot a machine to PXE it looks like it’s getting an IP address…screen goes away and says iPXE initialising devices…ok some iPXE 1.0.0 open source network…blah blah
Then it says Configuring net (mac address) after that though the machine reboots. Any suggestions? Did I miss something in the config? Does the switch need to be setup with IP helper addresses or anything even though its all on the same switch ? The only things on the switch are the 1 PC and the FOG server…Thanks for the help!
TL;DR – Ended up disabling spanning-tree on the switch and adding an IP helper address and this seemed to resolve the issue.
