RE: iPXE to redirect boot to another PXE server
Port 4011 is the port usually used in ProxyDHCP, which is most likely what you want. Read up on PXE fundamentals linked to from http://networkboot.org/.

If your DHCP server doesn't set "next-server" and "filename", and you have a ProxyDHCP server running on your network that provides these values, it should be picked up automatically by iPXE. If it is not doing that, I suggest you try a packet trace to figure out what's going on.
