2. Preboot Execution Environment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preboot_Execution_Environment

   A high-level PXE overview. In computing, the Preboot eXecution Environment (PXE; often pronounced as / ˈ p ɪ k s iː / pixie, often called PXE boot (pixie boot), is a specification describing a standardized client–server environment that boots a software assembly, retrieved from a network, on PXE-enabled clients.

3. Remote Installation Services - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_Installation_Services

   At boot time, a workstation that has been set to boot from PXE will issue a BOOTP request via the network. Once the request is received, the DHCP Server will supply an IP address to the machine, and the DNS server will point the client computer to the RIS server, which in turn will issue a disc boot image (often called the "OS Chooser").

4. iPXE - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPXE

   iPXE is an open-source implementation of the Preboot eXecution Environment (PXE) client software and bootloader, created in 2010 as a fork of gPXE (gPXE was named Etherboot until 2008). [2] It can be used to enable computers without built-in PXE capability to boot from the network, or to provide additional features beyond what built-in PXE ...

5. gPXE - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPXE

   gPXE is an open-source Preboot eXecution Environment (PXE) client firmware implementation and bootloader derived from Etherboot.It can be used to enable computers without built-in PXE support to boot from the network, or to extend an existing client PXE implementation with support for additional protocols.

6. Windows Preinstallation Environment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Preinstallation...

   Windows RE is installed alongside Windows Vista and later, and may be booted from hard disks, optical media (such as an operating system installation disc) and PXE (e.g. Windows Deployment Services). [23] A copy of Windows RE is included in the installation media of the aforementioned operating systems. It is a successor to the Recovery Console.

7. Remote Initial Program Load - Wikipedia

   Such a server runs a network operating system such as LAN Manager, LAN Server, Windows NT Server, Novell NetWare, LANtastic, Solaris or Linux. [1] RIPL is similar to Preboot Execution Environment (PXE), but it uses the Novell NetWare-based boot method. It was originally developed by IBM.

8. FOG Project - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FOG_Project

   The FOG Project (named after Free and Open-source Ghost), is a suite of software tools for deploying disk images of Microsoft Windows and Linux using the Preboot Execution Environment (PXE). It makes use of TFTP , the Apache webserver and iPXE .

9. Wake-on-LAN - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wake-on-LAN

   However, many client computers attempt booting from a PXE server when powered up by WoL. Therefore, a combination of DHCP and PXE servers on the network can sometimes be used to start a computer with an attacker's boot image, bypassing any security of the installed operating system and granting access to unprotected, local disks over the network.
