Hi,
Hope someone can help please.
I have configured WDS on Server 2012, my DHCP server is my Cisco E1000 router, which has been flashed with DD-WRT firmware.
I am PXE booting my VMware virtual machines and it boots successfully into the operating system startup (Windows 8) but eventually it pops an error message up saying
WdsClient: An error occurred while obtaining an IP address from the DHCP server. Please check to ensure that there is an operational DHCP server on this network segment.
Various information points me to my Cisco switch and the need to enable 'Spanning-Tree PortFast', however this looks like it's only relevant if you can't boot the image from the WDS server.
Can anyone suggest a fix for this please?
Thanks
