[Soekris-tech] Re: Diskless PXE clients: switching FreeBSDkernels based on MAC address

[Matt Peterson]

This might be possible with DHCP, I've done something similar...

subnet 192.168.250.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
 range 192.168.250.2 192.168.250.253;
 option routers 192.168.250.254;
 option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;                
 # NFS server & path
 option root-path "192.168.250.1:/usr/mboot";
}

class "soekris" {
 match if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 20) = "PXEClient:Arch:00000";
 # TFTP server & filename
 next-server 192.168.250.1;
 filename "pxeboot";

}
