For the clients
Sample scripts and files to be used as guidelines for creating your own are provided in this appendix.
These scripts and files are a necessary part of the PXE installation process.
dhcpd.conf script
A typical "dhcpd.conf" script for Red Hat Linux 8.0 is similar to the following:
ddns-update-style interim;
ignore client-updates;
# This is an upstream network required entry for multiple networks.
subnet 10.10.20.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
}
# Pxe Network
subnet 172.48.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 {
# --- default gateway
option routers
172.48.0.1;
