SCCM PXE boot setup

[Jax]

Hi all. Please could ask for help with pxe booting from SCCM. We have had a sudden change in our network team and have been ask to look at SCCM. (Very new to it as we have Bering using fog for years) I’ve got a test server up and running and all is well.

My question is to do with pxe booting.

At the moment we have a fog sever in the same vlan as the PCs that we image. On the DHCP server it’s got 66 & 67 point to the fog server ip and boot file. Is it a straight forward and swapping the ip and boot path for the SCCM server to deploy pxe?

That’s exactly what you need to do. Here is a guide https://gal.vin/posts/old/pxe-booting-for-uefi-bios/

We also have a ip helper address set on each vlan pointing to the server.

Using DHCP options 66/67 isn't recommended any more for SCCM. IP helpers are the way to do it if the machines are on a different subnet to the PXE server.

Hi, thank you for the help. I’ve got a pc pxe booting, on a very simple win 10 image I’ve set up DP and TS it connects to the Sccm server and starts the process point to the wim file from the smsimages folder the configuration manger screen then comes up and sits there, then restarts but the pc still has the old image from before on it its going through the process of imaging but doesn’t actually do it. What I’m I missing?
