[ipxe-devel] iPXE, iscsi, isc-dhcp on FreeBSD 10.x

[pathiaki2]

Michael,

I figured out part of it.... (sheepish) I had another DHCP server from 
previous experiments months ago.

Once I shut it down.... no more address and domain changes....

All changes were made in the dhcpd.conf file of isc-dhcpd 4.2:

ddns-update-style none;
option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.53;
option domain-name "test.net";
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option broadcast-address 192.168.0.255;

{then all the ipxe options}

subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
         range 192.168.0.175 192.168.0.254;
         use-host-decl-names on;
         default-lease-time 1;
         max-lease-time 86400;
         next-server 192.168.0.1;
         class "iPXE" {
                 match if option routers = "192.168.0.1";
         }
}

host laptop1.test.net {
      hardware ethernet 00:23:ae:14:a8:50;
      fixed-address 192.168.0.175;
      filename "boot/undionly.kpxe";
      option iscsi-initiator-iqn "iqn.2012-06.net.test:target0";
      option routers 192.168.0.1;
      if exists user-class and option user-class = "iPXE" {
          filename "";
          option root-path 
"iscsi:192.168.0.1::::iqn.2012-06.net.test:target0";
       } else {
          filename "boot/undionly.kpxe";
         }
}


And this works to a degree.  I get the whole re-initialize (second 
contact on dhcp) and it gives:

.
.
.
net0: 192.168.0.21/255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.0.1
Root path:  iscsi:192.168.0.1::::iqn.2012-06.net.test:target0 <correct 
IP!!! >
Registered SAN device 0x80
Booting from SAN device 0x80

And then it hangs right there... :-(

At this point, has it completely switched over control to the iSCSI target?

If it has, I know there's a problem with the LUN being exported or it 
not being able to boot from it....

However, I do see this in the log file:

kernel: WARNING: 192.168.0.21 (iqn.2010-04.org.ipxe:laptop1.test.net): 
no ping reply (NOP-Out) after 5 seconds; dropping connection

I don't understand that error and I don't get target it's trying to get 
to.... iqn.2010-04.org.ipxe:laptop1.test.net.  Is that some type of 
initiator in iPXE?

Any pointers?

Thank you,

Paul
