Setting Up Your NetBoot Server

NetBoot Client Internet Addresses

You need to supply one or more ranges of IP addresses for the NetBoot clients connected to
each Ethernet port. You need one IP address per computer, but it’s best if you allocate a few
extra to accommodate expansion.

IP Routing Information

The IP routing information you need to provide to the NetBoot Server Setup Assistant
depends on the configuration of your network.

NetBoot clients are connected directly to the router.

The server is a peer of NetBoot clients on a single subnet—each is connected directly to the
router. If this is your configuration, select Peer in the IP Routing Configuration panel of the
NetBoot Server Setup Assistant. For “Router IP address” enter the IP address of the router.
