Hello,
I am trying the DHCP 209 option however I understood there is an option
to use UUID.
My question is the UUID part of the PXELINUX search order ?
According to my knowledge the search is :
MAC
IP ( with all class option )
Default
Is there anything else ?

I can, but you can use option 209 in the DHCP server to produce the same
result, too.
See pxelinux.doc.
