Hi,

Thanks for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

1,Please do not use DHCP options 60,66 and 67 on your DHCP servers. If the options are configured, the DHCP server will masquerade as a PXE server and respond to the client with path to the network boot program, then the PXE may fail. Refer to: You want to PXE Boot? Don't use DHCP Options.

2,IP Helpers must be configured on the routers if any of the DHCP server, the client computer, or the Configuration Manager server that is running WDS and the PXE-enabled DP are on separate subnets or VLANs. IP Helpers are necessary because the PXE request that is generated by the client computer is a broadcast that doesn't travel outside the local subnet or VLAN. If the DHCP server or the WDS/PXE-enabled DP aren't on the same subnet or VLAN as the client computer, they will not see or hear the PXE request broadcast from the client. Therefore, the servers will not respond to the PXE request.

Best regards,
Simon
