# iPXE

An open-source network boot firmware that extends PXE with HTTP/HTTPS, iSCSI, FCoE and AoE SAN booting, a scripting language, and interactive boot menus and forms.

iPXE is network boot firmware that provides a full PXE implementation with additional features: booting from a web server over HTTP or HTTPS, booting from an iSCSI, FCoE or AoE storage area network, controlling the boot process with a script, and building interactive forms and menus.

It can replace the existing PXE ROM on a network card, or be chainloaded from the existing ROM to gain iPXE's features without reflashing hardware.

It is free, open-source software licensed under the GNU GPL, with some portions under GPL-compatible licenses, and is distributed as rolling-release binaries built from the latest commit or as tagged stable releases.
