[syslinux] [PATCH] Added searching for config file using only the OUI part of the MAC address
Allows selecting config file by manufacturer or vendor. For my particular case, I offer by pxelinux menus some re-storable images for a bunch of windows machines that where bought in few batches and that could be efficiently classified by their OUI. That way, I could include only the images that are compatible or relevant for that particular hardware. Do you think this functionality could be useful? -- cheers vicente -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

You can also do the same thing with tftpd rewrite rules or with DHCP option functions, though. -hpa
