Hi all!
Trying to track down an unexpected behavior for one of our teams here:
“We tried to PXEBoot a VM using IPv6 and even though the server replied with all requested boot options, the firmware for some reason did a DHCPv6 release instead of going for a network boot.”
The team dug in with some debugging and tracked things down to this process and the associated code:
1. DHCP server is sending REPLY with valid boot params and tftp server address.
2. UEFI upon receiving this REPLY, it is trying to send UDP request with port 4011 and uses TFTP global address as destination address.
3. Ip6Output() in /NetworkPkg/Ip6Dxe/Ip6Output.c drops the UDP request generated in Step-2. This is due to route miss.
* Function: https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/20ca52882877ba9025da2ee58c8dab7808eca457/NetworkPkg/Ip6Dxe/Ip6Output.c#L476
* Error return: https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/20ca52882877ba9025da2ee58c8dab7808eca457/NetworkPkg/Ip6Dxe/Ip6Output.c#L701
4. As the UDP request with port 4011 failed, UEFI does a RELEASE message and errors out.
5. Below the code snippet inside UEFI where packet is getting dropped.
Here’s some questions from the team:
1. Why is UEFI doing UDP request with port 4011 to TFTP server address. We expect it to start TFTP with data provided in REPLY by server.
2. In data center, the blades are not directly connected to server. So how can UEFI learn the routes to send a unicast request using global address.
3. In case of IPv4, we don’t see any UDP request using port 4011. Why alone for IPv6?
Thoughts? Thanks in advance!
- Bret

Hi guys,
Finally got some time to look into it.
Long story short, this smells like infrastructure problem.
SARR passes over 546/547 port pair. That is between UEFI PXE client and
DHCP server (even if it is the same machine).
The next packet is essentially a Boot Server choice step. UEFI PXE
client sends a unicast discovery packet towards Boot server (same
machine, same address) coded as DHCP Request.
The release packet is a direct reaction to 3 second timeout (see time
diff between packet 9 and 11).
See section 2.2.1 in PXE spec:
http://www.pix.net/software/pxeboot/archive/pxespec.pdf
Please verify that your WDS service is running correctly, since clearly
there is no reaction to that packet from Boot server.

Thanks Vincent and Maciej for the your inputs. We made some more analysis and want your inputs for the same.
Test:1
1. DHCPv6 server replied with IANA, Option 16(Vendor class with String as PxeClient), Option 59(Boot File URL with TFTP address), and Option 60 (BootFileParam)
Analysis: It is observed UEFI is trying to send boot server request based on the address mentioned in the boot file URL which is unicast. And this is done as part of SARR and as station IP is not assigned, the route lookup failed and packet dropped. If I use any link-local address in boot file URL , then request goes out. But in our case, PXE client and server are not on same link. So should the order be changed here. Finish SARR, assign Station IP and then do Boot server request.
Test:2
DHCPv6 server replied with IANA , Option 59(Boot File URL with TFTP address), and Option 60 (BootFileParam). I did not include Option 16(Pxe vendor string)
Analysis: It is observed that UEFI expects boot file length in 512 byte resolution and the did parsing was not in line with rfc5970 (ietf.org)<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc5970#section-3.2>. Can you tell us what is the expectation here? Please find the attached file for how option 60 is added by server.
Test:3
DHCPv6 server replied with IANA , Option 59(Boot File URL with TFTP address). I did not include Option 16(Pxe vendor string) and Option 60(BootFileParam)
As the reply does not carry PxeVendor string and boot file param, It is observed that UEFI finished SARR and station IPv6 was configured. It also went ahead and downloaded bootx64.efi file which was mentioned in option 59.
We also observed that UEFI loaded bootMgr and but eventually failed with following error on screen. We want UEFI to boot it in this method. Can you share us what needs to be done to move forward in this direction?

Maciej and Vincent,
We’ve captured data that demonstrates that EDK2 is handling IPv4 differently than IPv6. I’ve opened a bug to track this work:
3471 – Unexpected DHCP RELEASE after PXE server reply on IPv6; IPv4 handled differently (tianocore.org)<https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3471>
The captures were large, so I’ve shared them with OneDrive links.
The IPv4 capture shows that the UEFI is _not_ responding with a special UDP request.
Thoughts?
- Bret

Subject: RE: [EXTERNAL] Re: [edk2-devel] NetworkPkg: Unexpected DHCP RELEASE after PXE server reply on IPv6
Thanks Vincent and Maciej for the your inputs. We made some more analysis and want your inputs for the same.
Test:1
1. DHCPv6 server replied with IANA, Option 16(Vendor class with String as PxeClient), Option 59(Boot File URL with TFTP address), and Option 60 (BootFileParam)
Analysis: It is observed UEFI is trying to send boot server request based on the address mentioned in the boot file URL which is unicast. And this is done as part of SARR and as station IP is not assigned, the route lookup failed and packet dropped. If I use any link-local address in boot file URL , then request goes out. But in our case, PXE client and server are not on same link. So should the order be changed here. Finish SARR, assign Station IP and then do Boot server request.
Test:2
DHCPv6 server replied with IANA , Option 59(Boot File URL with TFTP address), and Option 60 (BootFileParam). I did not include Option 16(Pxe vendor string)
Analysis: It is observed that UEFI expects boot file length in 512 byte resolution and the did parsing was not in line with rfc5970 (ietf.org)<https://nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdatatracker.ietf.org%2Fdoc%2Fhtml%2Frfc5970%23section-3.2&data=04%7C01%7CBret.Barkelew%40microsoft.com%7C2810d8102cea4be5741208d93b2f4e7e%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C637605896636463718%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=z6b5uIqrd7xDaa6EtAoiggvG1UgufNQrOuRBH4oK0gY%3D&reserved=0>. Can you tell us what is the expectation here? Please find the attached file for how option 60 is added by server.
Test:3
DHCPv6 server replied with IANA , Option 59(Boot File URL with TFTP address). I did not include Option 16(Pxe vendor string) and Option 60(BootFileParam)
As the reply does not carry PxeVendor string and boot file param, It is observed that UEFI finished SARR and station IPv6 was configured. It also went ahead and downloaded bootx64.efi file which was mentioned in option 59.
We also observed that UEFI loaded bootMgr and but eventually failed with following error on screen. We want UEFI to boot it in this method. Can you share us what needs to be done to move forward in this direction?

FYI
For IPv6, the TFTP-based network boot process (i.e., pxe) is called Netboot6 & detailed in “24.3.1 Netboot6”/” 24.3.1.2 IPv6-based PXE boot", and for IPV4 PXE we also curate changes/clarifications in “E.4.20 PXE 2.1 specification wire protocol clarifications”, all of which are found in https://uefi.org/sites/default/files/resources/UEFI_Spec_2_9_2021_03_18.pdf<https://nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fuefi.org%2Fsites%2Fdefault%2Ffiles%2Fresources%2FUEFI_Spec_2_9_2021_03_18.pdf&data=04%7C01%7CBret.Barkelew%40microsoft.com%7C2810d8102cea4be5741208d93b2f4e7e%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C637605896636473672%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=iVMicYpEcGSV1wNXEL9zDV2%2F5ZeK5jFgFabbCwuk%2FUU%3D&reserved=0> since http://www.pix.net/software/pxeboot/archive/pxespec.pdf<https://nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.pix.net%2Fsoftware%2Fpxeboot%2Farchive%2Fpxespec.pdf&data=04%7C01%7CBret.Barkelew%40microsoft.com%7C2810d8102cea4be5741208d93b2f4e7e%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C637605896636473672%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=%2FXkhfh7PmOXMn4Tu2uG6Dk2GMYaaFwlhlhnSB8oYonA%3D&reserved=0> is frozen/unmaintained at this point.

Additionally, for claim that IPv4 does not do that, please provide Wireshark trace, if available.

Hi guys,
Finally got some time to look into it.
Long story short, this smells like infrastructure problem.
SARR passes over 546/547 port pair. That is between UEFI PXE client and DHCP server (even if it is the same machine).
The next packet is essentially a Boot Server choice step. UEFI PXE client sends a unicast discovery packet towards Boot server (same machine, same address) coded as DHCP Request.
The release packet is a direct reaction to 3 second timeout (see time diff between packet 9 and 11).
See section 2.2.1 in PXE spec: http://www.pix.net/software/pxeboot/archive/pxespec.pdf<https://nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.pix.net%2Fsoftware%2Fpxeboot%2Farchive%2Fpxespec.pdf&data=04%7C01%7CBret.Barkelew%40microsoft.com%7C2810d8102cea4be5741208d93b2f4e7e%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C637605896636483629%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=9mwsE3chGgjMSgKQE0dklTdNuhZvdmNdIyxzi%2F7wZ%2Fs%3D&reserved=0>
Please verify that your WDS service is running correctly, since clearly there is no reaction to that packet from Boot server.
