I've read through so many forum topics, following many step by step configurations however I am at a loss here. I have a 2012 R2 SP1 Configuration Manager Server and Server 2012 R2 as my WDS/PXE server to deploy Windows 7. Each server is a VM in VMware. We are getting DHCP from our router. The router is set to give out 192.168.190.x address. My WDS/PXE server is in the 192.168.190.x network. The boot image is deployed, its configured for PXE, WDS was configured by SCCM when I added the distribution role. I keep getting a E53: No boot filename received. I captured packets using wireshark, my client laptop is getting a DHCP address of 192.168.190.x however I get multiple DHCP Discover and DHCP Offer packets, from my gateway. Src port is port 68 and Dst port is port 67. It seems like the PXE server isn't sending the proper response. From my understanding the client receives the DHCP address and then receives a packet telling it where the PXE server is, which it looks like its going to my WDS/PXE server however my server doesn't look like its responding properly. Is this the right assessment? Is there something on the Router I need to configure? Is it a VM NIC issue? Thank you for your help.
