Hi
i've hit a little bit of a problem, to do with an SCCM deployment, basically, option 60 ascii "PXEClient" is configured and boots all devices that use UEFI, however, some legacy devices are still requiring SCCM deployment, devices with BIOS's dont PXE boot with option 60 included in DHCP pool, remove this and legacy devices boot. Hence the problem
ip dhcp pool test-pool
network 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0
next-server sccmserverip
default-router 192.168.1.254
dns-server dns1 dns2
netbios-name-server wins1 wins2
domain-name domain.local
option 42 ip ntp1 ntp2
netbios-node-type h-node
option 66 ascii "sccmserverip"
option 67 ascii "\smsboot\x64\wdsnbp.com"
option 60 ascii "PXEClient"
lease 0 8
we need something like, to take into account UEFI(x64), UEFI(x32) and BIOS(x32/64)
option 60 ascii "PXEClient:Arch:00007|PXEClient:Arch:00006|PXEClient:Arch:00000"
but, obviously this doesn't work
any thoughts, is this even possible?

Hi hypnocarrot,
I'd like to do this too but, as far as I'm aware, it's not currently possible to offer a different bootfile name depending on the client using IOS DHCP.
A workaround would be to have a DHCP pool for Legacy/BIOS clients offering one bootfile and another pool giving the UEFI bootfile. Not ideal though.
