You can use DHCP to install Oracle Solaris on certain client systems on your network. Only sun4u-based systems and x86 systems that meet the hardware requirements for running Oracle Solaris can use this feature. For information about using DHCP to automatically configure client systems for the network as they boot, see Oracle Solaris 11 Express Automated Installer Guide.
DHCP also supports Oracle Solaris client systems that boot and install remotely from servers across a wide area network (WAN) using HTTP. This method of remote booting and installing is called the WAN boot installation method. Using WAN boot, you can install Oracle Solaris on SPARC based systems over a large public network where the network infrastructure might be untrustworthy. You can use WAN boot with security features to protect data confidentiality and installation image integrity.
Before you can use DHCP for booting and installing client systems remotely by using WAN boot, the DHCP server must be configured to supply the following information to clients:
The proxy server's IP address
The location of the wanboot—cgi program
