You can include ${mac} within the DHCP filename, e.g.:

Code:

filename "http://my.web.server/boot.php?mac=${mac}";

Alternatively, you can use an iPXE script. This gives you the option to fall back to an alternative script if the one you want doesn't exist. For example:

Code:

#!ipxe
chain http://my.web.server/${mac:hexhyp}.php || chain http://my.web.server/default.php

(Note the use of the ":hexhyp" settings type to obtain the MAC address with hyphen separators rather than colons, since colons are generally not valid in filenames.)
