Setup: Intel® Boot Agent User Guide
Server System Setup
For the Boot Agent software to perform its intended job, there must be a server set up on the same network as the client
computer. That server must recognize and respond to the PXE or BOOTP boot protocols that are used by the Boot Agent
software.
The following topics describe the actions you should take to set up various types of servers to work with the Boot Agent. If you
have questions concerning the setup of your server system, contact the manufacturer of your server hardware or your server
operating system vendor for assistance.
NOTE: When the Intel Boot Agent software is installed as an upgrade for an earlier version boot ROM, the associated
server-side software may not be compatible with the updated Intel Boot Agent. Contact your system administrator to
determine if any server updates are necessary.
Linux* Server Setup
Consult your Linux* vendor for information about setting up the Linux Server.
Other Server Setup Information
An extensive list of hardware and software manufacturers provides products that support remote boot technology, conforming
to PXE / BOOTP / DHCP protocols.
