Booting
After that the system has been prepared for an iSCSI boot and the operating system is present on the iSCSI

Other iSCSI Boot Considerations
There are several other factors that should be considered when configuring a system for iSCSI boot.
Changing the Speed & Duplex Settings in Windows Environments
Booting via the NDIS path is supported. The Speed & Duplex settings can be changed using the BACS
management utility for iSCSI boot via the NDIS path.
Locally Administered Address
A user-defined MAC address assigned through the Locally Administered Address property of the Advanced
section of the BACS Configurations tab is not supported on iSCSI boot-enabled devices.
