BIOS and UEFI Co-Existence

General

To make network booting for several different client platforms possible you'd have to offer adequate boot images for those clients. To be able to distinguish between varying platforms the DHCP server needs to utilize the information send by the clients. According to RFC 4578 "the following pre-boot architecture types have been requested" (by the RFC):

           Type   Architecture Name
           ----   -----------------
             0    Intel x86PC
             1    NEC/PC98
             2    EFI Itanium
             3    DEC Alpha
             4    Arc x86
             5    Intel Lean Client
             6    EFI IA32
             7    EFI BC (EFI Byte Code)
             8    EFI Xscale
             9    EFI x86-64

Using Linux DHCP

According to this post there are (at least) three different ways to configure ISC DHCP server that way: http://www.syslinux.org/archives/2014-October/022683.html

Step 1

Edit /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf and add the 'authoritative' option to your subnet definition and the following classes anywhere in the config:

subnet ... {
    authoritative;
    ...
}
...

class "pxeclient" {
    match if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9) = "PXEClient";

    if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 15, 5) = "00000" {
        # BIOS client 
        filename "undionly.kpxe";
    }
    elsif substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 15, 5) = "00006" {
        # EFI client 32 bit
        filename   "ipxe32.efi";
    }
    else
        # EFI BC (00007) and EFI x86-64 (00009) are usually 64 bit
        filename   "ipxe.efi";
    }
}
class "applei386" {
    match if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 14) = "AAPLBSDPC/i386";
    option dhcp-parameter-request-list 1,3,17,43,60;
    if (option dhcp-message-type = 1) {
        option vendor-class-identifier "AAPLBSDPC/i386";
        option vendor-encapsulated-options 08:04:81:00:00:67;

        if (substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 15, 10) = "Macbook1,1") {
            # 32 bit
            filename "ipxe32.efi";
        }
        elsif (substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 15, 10) = "Macbook6,1") {
            # 64 bit
            filename "ipxe.efi";
        }
        #
        # add more 'elsif' here to suit your needs
        #
        else {
            # default to ipxe.efi as new hardware is likely to be 64 bit
            filename "ipxe.efi";
        }
    }
}

Using ProxyDHCP (dnsmasq)

Steps Here

Please list dnsmasq steps here.

Using Windows Server 2012 (r1 and later) DHCP Policy

The below method assumes that your normal Scope options 066 and 067 are set for BIOS boot files. The below DHCP policy will only apply to UEFI based network booting. Regular BIOS based network booting will still use the default scope options set in the scope.

Step 1

Right click IPv4, and pick "Define vendor class".

Step 2

Step 3

Here, The display name and description aren't really important but should describe what this does.

What's important is the "ASCII" field. In this field, you would type this:

PXEClient:Arch:00007

As you type this in, the ID and Binary fields will auto-update. When done, click Ok, ok, ok to finish this part of the procedure.

Step 4

Underneath IPv4 -> Scope -> Policies, right click on "Policies" and choose "New Policy..."

Step 5

Step 6

Step 7

Step 8

Step 9

Step 10

Using Windows Server 2008 (and earlier) using DHCP Option 003

Using OS X DHCP
