Hi,

Is the other PXE location that it is trying to boot to on the same network?

Hi,

No, the other PXE location that is trying to boot is on a different network.

Many thanks.

Update:

It’s attempting boot on a 1G interface instead of the 25G interface. Actually it attempts boot on all interfaces and we only get the right result by shutting down all other interfaces at the switch.

Many thanks.

What is the boot order?

if you expand the uefi menu and it should show a boot order uncheck everything besides that nic.

Hi,

Here is what the iDRAC shows:

Hi,

That's the problem, I only see and select the 25GbE NIC as show in the picture:

However, we see that all the 1GbE ports on the other Broadcom NIC attempt to PXE boot independently of this config.

Any ideas why?

Many thanks.

Will it give you the option to boot in the option rom for the NICs during post to try to turn it off there?

Hi,

Please see the following screenshot:

net0 to net3 are the 4x 1 GbE, which haven't been selected for PXE boot. net4 to net5 are the 2x 25 GbE.

Despite the fact that we only enabled net4 for PXE boot, it attempts to network boot from all of them until it finally succeeds with net4:

There was no option in POST to turn off PXE on the 1 GbE ports.

Many thanks.

I think your best option is to call phone support, it may need to be escalated.
