Tftp client timed out efi boot5/17/2023 Last week I performed a site reset to fix another issue I was having on my server, and I guess this was fixed along with it. I checked on it again today and it magically worked. UPDATE-Īfter months of just not using PXE. This is when the machine goes to the "Press F1 key to retry boot." screen. In this case tftp between the client and the server works to download several files including nbp.efi prior to the failure, so in this case tftp seems to work. I see that mine just stops, without errors, right before the request is sent for the "bootmgfw.efi". Here is a screenshot of a successful PXE boot a friend sent me (left) and my log (right).

Dhcpd is working and the system is getting an IP address. Then it just ignores the tftp, and proceeds to boot its other devices. From that I started to find errors as presented in this topic, It was then that I had the idea of separating a VM for each one and I opted for the windows server as a DHCP server, I only changed option 66 and 67, filename snponly.efi to boot UEFI and it worked. Here is a link to the SMSpxe.log file if you want to take a look: Everything looks fine until it does the tftpboot. Reset BIOS to default settings and only enable UEFI Network Stack Uninstall/Reinstall PXE in Config Manager I have made sure my Task Sequence is deployed to relevant collection that includes the device.Ĭonfigure IP Helpers on all VLANS & Switches The device has been previously imaged and has the client installed. I have been testing on multiple Dell machines- all have gotten the same result -> Boot via Onboard NIC (IPv4) -> Stalls at the "Media present." screen for about 45 seconds -> Fails I know there are so many posts regarding this topic, but I haven't been able to find a solution. PXE booting works on Legacy BIOS but not UEFI. Hello! I am pretty new to SCCM Administration but I am learning more every day.
