Is it possible to PXE Boot into a different vlan?

Hi all,

 

Basically, we have a lot of imaging right now. I was just curious if it was possible to dynamically put the machine into a different vlan when pxe booting to not use up the IP addresses in a scope. Of course, I could just shorten the lease times, but I was curious if it was possible to put them on a different vlan.

 

Thank you

Charles

Never had this problem until people started working from home. Now I have some users that are imaging machines in bulk in their offices or labs to get machines ready to send home to the students. The machines are usually through out the entire campus and we never had this issue until now. But they are being pulled into a central area to make it easier to image and hand them out to students. Just looking for a different way than reducing the lease time on the DHCP scope.

 

I'll change the lease. Seems like that will be the easiest way to do it.

 - This requirement looks forced  and contradicts solid Intranet network management where devices can  be assigned to a vlan depending on their purpose, providing sufficient addresses (in the correlated dhcp scope).
