[ipxe-devel] Problem with accessing iPXE via UNDI

[Jarrod Johnson]

Yeah, I thought it was just the opportunistic merging of the massive amount
of arp traffic during multi-thousand node boot (which ipxe has changed
since then), but after removing it, the table filled up from reset packets
(multi-thousand servers with tons of monitoring agents that would just
happen to hit at least a handful of the servers every mass boot attempt).
