Hi dnsmasq-discuss Groupmembers,
I tried to get working dnsmasq as DHCP Proxy for UEFI HTTP boot.
The following configuration, dnsmasq as DHCP Server, works (but we
have
another DHCP Server running):
dhcp-range=efi-http,192.168.1.200,192.168.1.220
dhcp-option=tag:efi-http,option:vendor-class,HTTPClient
dhcp-option=tag:efi-http,option:bootfile-name,http://192.168.1.100/esxi/mboot.efi
But when i tried to setup dnsmasq as DHCP Proxy it does not respond
to any
requests:
dhcp-range=efi-http,192.168.1.0,proxy,255.255.255.0
dhcp-option=tag:efi-http,option:vendor-class,HTTPClient
dhcp-option=tag:efi-http,option:bootfile-name,http://192.168.1.100/esxi/mboot.efi
After further investigations I found out that dnsmasq does only
responds
(send packets) to DHCP Requests, when configured as DHCP Proxy, when
the
options pxe-service and dhcp-boot are set (to some "default", useless
values, and therefore UEFI HTTP Boot not work). But in my opinion
these
options are not necessary for booting UEFI HTTP Clients and makes no
sense
to set.
Anybody a hint for me whats wrong in my configuration?
It is incomplete.
Or is the combination DHCP Proxy and UEFI HTTP boot not RFC like?
THx in advance
Yeah, the answer was send in advance.
Now wait for the next monthly posting.
