New Install of Windows Server 2008R2 from ISO file to New Dell Servers w/o OS

I have a newly configured Dell server with no operating system.  I downloaded the Windows Serer 2008 R2 ISO file from the Microsoft Licensing Center and attempted to load to no avail.

Message reads:

No boot device available.  Current boot mode is set to UEFI.  Please ensure compatible bootable media is available. Use the system setup program to change the boot mode as needed.  F1 to reboot   F2 for system setup   F11 for UEFI boot manager

The DVD drive tries to boot first but apparently is not considered compatible bootable media.  It seems like I have made a mountain out of a molehill.  Please help.
