<p dir="ltr">Hi James,</p>
<p dir="ltr">Snponly uses the firmwares own driver, just like with UNDI it's not likely that vlan works.<br>
You will probably want to use the full ipxe.efi instead since it have native drivers for many cards, but still with snp/nii fallback.<br>
Without using the native drivers in ipxe, you are in the mearsy of the manufacturers undi/snp/nii stack that is most likely not tested with any kind of vlan.</p>

When booting off a VLAN it seems that the connection is extremely slow. The script that is embedded is very simple and after 10 minutes it still hasn't booted to the menu system, which is again very small scripts. Any idea what I might be able to do to provide you with more information to troubleshoot it?<br>
