Smoothwall School Guardian
On School Guardian, you'd implement as follows:
0.32 and below
- in Services > DHCP > DHCP Server, select your subnet and click the advanced button
- under "TFTP server" enter the IP of your FOG server ("TFTP Server" field = DHCP "nextserver" field)
- under "Network boot filename" enter the filename on the TFTP server, which AFAICT is pxelinux.0
- Click save at the bottom of the page. You'll need to restart the DHCP services via Services > DHCP > Global
0.33 and up
- in Services > DHCP > DHCP Server, select your subnet and click the advanced button
- under "TFTP server" enter the IP of your FOG server ("TFTP Server" field = DHCP "nextserver" field)
- under "Network boot filename" enter the filename on the TFTP server, which AFAICT is undionly.kpxe
- Click save at the bottom of the page. You'll need to restart the DHCP services via Services > DHCP > Global
