Installing the Windows Deployment Service

You can use the Windows Deployment Service (WDS) to deploy Windows operating systems over the network.

You can install the WDS by using either the Windows server manager or Microsoft PowerShell.

If you want the PXE boot to work across VLANs in your organization, configure DHCP options. You access the DHCP options from the DHCP management console. After you configure the DHCP options, you can perform a PXE boot to the Mirage environment.

066 Boot Server Host Name	Boot server host name and the IP address or FQDN of the server on which you installed WDS.
