You should be able to access the NIS+ domain using:

Code:

echo ${64:string}

You'll need to force your DHCP server to hand out this option even though iPXE doesn't request it. With ISC dhcpd, you can do this using something like:

Code:

append dhcp-parameter-request-list 64;

in /etc/dhcpd.conf.
