At boot time, a workstation that has been set to boot from PXE will issue a BOOTP request via the network. Once the request is received, the DHCP Server will supply an IP address to the machine, and the DNS server will point the client computer to the RIS server, which in turn will issue a disc boot image (often called the "OS Chooser").
A PXE client will not be able to boot if it only receives an answer from a non PXE enabled DHCP server. After parsing a PXE enabled DHCP server DHCPOFFER, the client will be able to set its own network IP address, IP Mask, etc., and to point to the network located booting resources, based on the received TFTP Server IP address and the name of ...
Each service's registry key contains an optional Group value which governs the order of initialization of a respective service or a device driver, with respect to other service groups. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services , which contains the actual database of services and device drivers and is read into SCM's internal database ...
Microsoft Configuration Manager (ConfigMgr) is a systems management software product developed by Microsoft for managing large groups of computers providing remote control, patch management, software distribution, operating system deployment, and hardware and software inventory management.
Windows RE is installed alongside Windows Vista and later, and may be booted from hard disks, optical media (such as an operating system installation disc) and PXE (e.g. Windows Deployment Services). [23] A copy of Windows RE is included in the installation media of the aforementioned operating systems. It is a successor to the Recovery Console.
The SDI file format also lends itself to network booting using the Preboot Execution Environment (PXE). Another usage is hard disk imaging. The SDI file itself is partitioned into the following sections: Boot BLOB This contains the actual boot program, STARTROM.COM. This is analogous to the boot sector of a hard disk. Load BLOB
The 32-bit VxD message server (MSGSRV32) starts MPREXE.EXE, which is responsible for loading the network logon client (such as Client for Microsoft Networks, Microsoft Family Logon or Windows Logon). When a user is logging on to Windows, the startup sound is played, the shell (usually EXPLORER.EXE ) is loaded from the [boot] section of the ...
iPXE is an open-source implementation of the Preboot eXecution Environment (PXE) client software and bootloader, created in 2010 as a fork of gPXE (gPXE was named Etherboot until 2008). [2] It can be used to enable computers without built-in PXE capability to boot from the network, or to provide additional features beyond what built-in PXE ...
