Hi all.

Hello.
I am trying to find more information about the xPXE client in the HP
DL580 G7, which I believe has an embedded QLogic NC375i quad-NIC .
I know this NIC. :) It's the (previously NetXen) QLogic "Phantom" NIC.
This has apparently been shipped with a "gPXE" client and I am having
some interoperability problems with a PXE boot server in that the
client sends a boot request with an empty boot filename despite the
DHCP ack containing a filename (for TFTP access).
Can you capture the DHCP transaction with Wireshark or 'tcpdump' and
filter it for DHCP and share the resulting packets as an e-mail
attachment? I don't quite understand what you mean by the client
sending an empty boot filename. Do you mean it makes a TFTP request
with an empty filename? If so, do you have a Control-B CLI? If so, can
you please try:
dhcp net0
show filename
and report whether or not you got a filename from the DHCP service?

This NIC probably has an older version of gPXE on it, so we should keep
that in mind.
