Using the PXE boot agent utility program

Use the Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) boot agent utility program to select
the boot protocol and other boot options and to select a power-management
option.
Notes:

prompt is displayed, press
Ctrl+S. You have 2 seconds (by default) to press Ctrl+S after the prompt is
displayed.
If the PXE setup prompt is not displayed, use the Configuration/Setup Utility
program to set the
Enable Ethernet PXE/DHCP option.
