ipxe brcm5720 NIC fails communicate with PXE server - rammaladi - 2015-11-12 05:19
We have BCM5720 NICs on our board. Our board has Intel bdx-de CPU.
Enabled tg3 driver.
If I configure IP, netmask, gateway manually and try download images from PXE server, it works fine.
But, dhcp does not work,ie.,
ifconf -c dhcp net1
Is there any known issue with DHCP communication on iPXE via BRCM5720 NICs?

Try to go through the test suite on http://ipxe.org/dev/driver and report back exactly which parts pass and fail. That might allow us to get deeper into the issue. You should probably take the followup to IRC or the mailing-list as some interactive debugging might be required.
