Boot Over a 10GbE Network (Oracle Solaris x86/x64 and Linux)
On the adapter, the MAC address on the label is for the first port. The second port's MAC
address is the MAC address from the label, plus 1.
2.
Set up the PXE boot server with the MAC addresses.
3.
Plug the Ethernet cable into the adapter's port.
4.
Power on the server.
5.
Press the F2 key or the Control-E keys to go to the BIOS menu.
6.
Go to the Boot - Boot Device Priority screen and ensure that the boot order of
the network devices is higher than the hard drive.
7.
Press the F10 key to save the boot configuration changes and exit BIOS.
The server should reboot after saving the boot configuration.
8.
On Oracle platforms, press the F12 key to install the OS from the network.
If the cable is connected to the correct port, you should see the MAC address that you assigned
to your PXE server displayed by BIOS. If your platform does not support the F12 key, you
might need to boot from the BIOS.
