We place a password on this so no one but IT can choose anything but boot from hdd from it just in case. When we create a boot action in the k for the machines to image with, we also do a k push to use the cctk and change the boot order to pxe first and the machines take off and image when they reboot, I switch the boot order back in a post task.
The password in another way. Years ago Someone entered the options 66 and 67 in as dhcp server level options instead of subnet options, the servers checked in with the zen server and started imaging xp to them.

Comments: We split the bad xerox'x off to a different vlan so now we have PXE on all subnets. Word of wise put a PXE password on the boot. Posted by: tpr 9 years ago. OK, thanks. I just sent a preliminary message to the dhcp admins. Comments: Option 67 should be k For other dhcp servers, option 66 is next-server and 67 is bootfilename.
We already have a server checked for 66 our phones provision from it I am wondering if i can have more than one entry since it will be two servers?
I came across this post looking for the exact setup. I just setup a new Elastix phone system using 66 to provision the phones and now I would like to add a FOG server to the network.

It is not trivial work, and it does not make sense. There is very little that you can accomplish here. What if you have multiple PXE servers?
Using multiple PXE server is a common practice for load-balancing. How do you fake all of these with a single DHCP server response?
Such a method completely breaks down here. You can add as many as you need or as many as you want. Yes boss. For the load-balancing case, PXE servers can be up or down in a group, and you don't have to do any additional configuration. For the diverse environment case, the different PXE servers can selectively choose to respond to the clients that they recognize. The client will always download the network boot file specified in the DHCP reply and run it.
This is problematic in some UEFI settings because the client may never attempt to boot from the hard drive once it has been instructed to start a network boot and the network boot fails e. This is also problematic for mixed-OS environments. In the IP helper world, the true PXE server decides whether or not it will respond and serve a network boot file. In the Configuration Manager case, it will only respond if there is a task sequence deployed to the client.
Your network administrator just needs to add that one single line of 'IP helper' router configuration that points to your PXE server. It is next to the configuration line that points to the DHCP server. If something is anyway worth doing, one might as well do it right.
