iPXE EFI - no network after the DHCP sequence

[cbn38]

Many thanks for your reply.

Until recently, we succeeded to boot our nodes by chainloading "snp.efi", but now we see the devices which are unusable (link seen as down). We also tried snponly.efi and ipxe.efi but no interfaces were seen.

I tried to chainload a new version "80861523.efi", corresponding to an Intel NIC i350, and that works fine!

At this step, we do not have removed the native EFI Intel driver included in our firmware. After having unloaded it (through EFI shell), that works too! We do need to integrate iPXE for several reasons:
- we would like to avoid a second DHCP sequence properly
- we want to play with crypto features (for authenticated clients with HTTPS)
and we love the features provided by iPXE, that's a good reason!

Thank you
