Option NDM “‘<HPDM_Gateway_IP_Address>’ ‘40003’”;
NOTE: The <HPDM_Gateway_IP_Address> is the address of the server running the HPDM
Gateway service. This command must be written exactly as shown above, including the double
quotes, single quotes, and single space, as shown in the following example:
Option NDM “‘192.168.1.100’ ‘40003’”;

Configuring routers for PXE imaging
For PXE imaging to function properly, any network that uses DHCP and has multiple subnets should
have an IP helper configured in the router that is between any devices that require a dynamic IP
address and the DHCP server. The router will need to be configured to have an additional IP helper
address point to the HPDM Gateway.
The following example uses a Cisco router:
1. Enter Global Configuration mode.
2. Type ip forward-protocol udp 67 and press Enter.
3. Type ip forward-protocol udp 68 and press Enter.
4. Type ip helper-address <DHCP_Server_IP_Address> and press Enter.
5. Type ip helper-address <HPDM_Gateway_IP_address> and press Enter.
NOTE: The above IP addresses should be entered without the < or > characters.
Configuring BIOS settings on legacy Neoware devices for PXE imaging
Before you can capture or deploy an image with PXE on legacy Neoware devices, you must make
sure that the source and target devices have their BIOS settings configured correctly.
To configuring BIOS settings on legacy Neoware devices for PXE:
1. Turn on the device and hold down the Delete key to display the CMOS Setup Utility screen.
2. Select Advanced BIOS Features and set the following:
First Boot Device [LAN]
Second Boot Device [HDD-0]
3. Press the Esc key to return to the initial screen, and then select Integrated Peripherals > VIA
OnChip PCI Device.
4. Make sure Onboard Lan Boot ROM is set to [Enabled].
5. Press the F10 key, press the Y key, and then press Enter to save the settings.
