Hi Siva,

EDK2 doesn't support the static IP http boot, only two boot scenarios (Corporate & Home environment) are supported as described in UEFI Spec 2.8, section 24.7. Both of them need DHCP server. There is no plan to support other scenario.

Thanks,
Jiaxin

Subject: [edk2-devel] reg: Static IP Based HTTP Boot

Hello:

Could you please clarify if there is any plan to support Static IP based HTTP Boot.

In order to perform the HTTP Boot it requires an server which leases the DHCP IP, since it performs the DHCP Process before perform the HTTP Boot.

Assume in the case where the server is running HTTP Service without running DHCP Service, with Static IP assigned to UEFI system it can't perform the HTTP Boot by providing URL via Setup.

Does EDK2 have plan to support this?

-Siva
