Hello ZClarkWilliams:

Could you please help to clarify if NetworkStack MUST install the LoadFile2 
Protocol or not. With reference to the below spec item, the LoadFile2 protocol 
must be implemented.

In one of the BIOS environment, the Setup Browser Locates the LoadFile2 
instance of Network Boot Device and it not found as it not installed by the 
current NetworkPkg.

Can you please comment if there is any reason behind not installing during the 
HTTP Boot.
“UEFI SPEC
2.6.3 Driver-Specific Elements There are a number of UEFI elements that can be 
added or removed depending on the features that a specific driver requires. 
Drivers can be implemented by platform firmware developers to support buses and 
devices in a specific platform. Drivers can also be implemented by add-in card 
vendors for devices that might be integrated into the platform hardware or 
added to a platform through an expansion slot. The following list includes 
possible driver features, and the UEFI elements that are required for each 
feature type:

  1.  If a driver is written for a boot device that is not a block-oriented 
device, a file system-based device, or a console device, then the 
EFI_LOAD_FILE2_PROTOCOL must be implemented.

Thanks
Siva
