A comprehensive suite for establishing a Windows network booting infrastructure, comprising PXE, BOOTP, and TFTP services, Boot Image Editor, editing database (BOOTPTAB Editor) for client boot parameters, and pre-OS utilities, all in a DOS-based environment.
This software product comes with a complete package of services and administrator applications necessary for setting up a network booting environment. This includes services such as PXE, BOOTP, and TFTP, as well as tools like the Boot Image Editor, the Client boot parameter database editor (BOOTPTAB Editor), and DOS-based pre-OS utilities.
Network Boot Tools is fully compliant with industry standards such as Wired for Management (WfM) 2.0, PXE, DHCP, BOOTP, TFTP, and NCP/IPX. It is also fully compatible with client-based network boot firmware such as 3Com, emBoot, and various Managed PC Boot Agents. Additionally, it can work with Intel Boot Agent, emBoot Managed PC Boot Agent, PXE boot ROMs, and Lanworks BootWare.
With Network Boot Tools, users can enjoy numerous key benefits such as the ability to work across different subnets, high-performance multi-threaded TFTP Service, and pre-OS network booting. Pre-OS network booting enables the loading and executing of centrally administered desktop management agents before the local OS is loaded from the hard drive. This helps increase enterprise productivity by facilitating central control and repair of network clients, reducing administrator "travel time" to individual PCs, and ensuring system availability for end-users.
Furthermore, Network Boot Tools can help lower the total cost of ownership by saving administrators time, keeping end-users productive, and protecting data, all of which lead to lower IT ownership costs. It is also guaranteed to be compatible with most of today's widely used operating systems and client management utilities, making it a versatile and universal network solution. Finally, Network Boot Tools offers a streamlined installation process for easy setup and user-friendly experience.
