    Hi,
    I am using MDT 2010 for image deployment. WDS , DHCP etc are configured.
    While doing pxe, (the PXE is enabled) it spends long time for getting the ips after that the machine could
    not get ip and reboot with local system.

    Please let me know what is the issue or i am missing something.

    What DHCP Options have you configured?

    Did you tell WDS to listen on Port 67? Is the DHCP running on the same server as WDS?

    Hi,

    Ben has a good point here, make sure you followed the best practices for DHCP/WDS described in this Technet article http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb680753.aspx

    Can you rule out a general network Problem? When the PXE times out and the Local Installation boots, do you get an IP on the local OS?
