2. Use serial number of the chassis:
host demo {
option dhcp-client-identifier "<chassis-serial-number>";
filename "http://<IP-address>/<hardware-platform>-mini-x.iso";
fixed-address <IP-address>;
}
The serial number of the chassis is derived from the BIOS and is used as an identifier.
Example
host 10.89.205.202 {
hardware ethernet 40:55:39:56:0c:e8;
if exists user-class and option user-class = "iPXE" {
filename "http://10.89.205.127/box1/ncs1k-mini-x-6.3.1.iso";
} else {
filename "http://10.89.205.127/box1/StartupConfig.cfg";
}
fixed-address 10.89.205.202;
}
Boot Using iPXE
Before you use the iPXE boot, ensure that:
• DHCP server is set and is running.
• You have logged in to the System Admin console using the admin command.
Run the following command to invoke the iPXE boot process to reimage the chassis:
hw-module location all bootmedia network reload
Example:
sysadmin-vm:0_RP0# hw-module location all bootmedia network reload
Wed Dec 23 15:29:57.376 UTC
Reload hardware module ? [no,yes]
The following example shows the output of the command:
