Issues with PXE boot. We are confident we have DHCP server redirecting to Management server correctly, however pc's are not picking up correct boot directory/file.

Problem
unable to boot in pxe mode error "E74" so removed option 43 from DHCP (since there is only one pxe server) now getting error "prepxe error invalid pxe server list found"

Environment
SMP 7.1 8280 DS 7.1.2320 7,1 mr1 sp1
No. of PXE server 1
dhcp is on separate server
Pxe server and clients are on different vlan/subnet
toshiba hard Drisk sata hard disk IDE mode Sata
Dell Optiplex GX520 with BIOS version A01. And a Dell Optiplex 790 with BIOS version A11.
Customer has 6.9 installed in one Vlan that works fine and in different Vlan has 7.1 installed where he has issues with pxe boot.Customer is using on DHCP server for both DS.he has configured scop as per vlan.
Cause
The option 060 PXEClient was missing.
Solution
We saw that the option 060 PXEClient was missing so we added all the 4 options which are necessary for the PXE Clients to respond to the PXE Server and added
060 - PXE Client
043 - Vendor ID
066 -PXE Server (IP ADDRESS or SERVER name)
067-Bstrap.0 file location \x86pc\Bstrap\Bstrap.0
