PXE-E74 No MAN_INFO or OS_INFO options found

I need a solution

Hi,

 

I'm currently deploying PXE boot. I'm using infoblox as DHCP/DNS server. My client which should boot from PXE is on a different subnet than the DHCP and PXE server. My PXE server is also on a different vlan/subnet than my DHCP server and PXEclient. DHCP request are relayed to the infoblox DHCP server by the switch. The infoblox DHCP is configured according to following screenshots:

My client is getting the BStrap.0 file from the PXE server and starts booting. However, it just keeps on building up a dotted line for about 15 minutes and eventually fails with "PXE-E74 No MAN_INFO or OS_INFO options found".

When I fire up wireshark to sniff my client (using a hub), and on the PXE server to sniff the server to see if packets actually arrive on both sides, I get boot requests from my client and icmp replies from the server. This process keeps on going untill the client fails booting. I get these results as well on the client side as on the server side so I can assume that both sides can reach eachother. Here's a screenshot of my wireshark output:

I have tried out all possible fixes I could find on Symantec connect, and even on some other communities. None of them solved the problem. Any help would be very much appreciated, pulling my hair out here... :-)

 

Thanks in advance
