A UEFI driver to do what? Support PXE? Cards are expected to provide their own drivers (or OpROMs).

Many thanks for the offer. I am trying to understand what is available from the onboard EFI ROM for this add-in PCIe card, whether there are options for different ROM images (PXE, iSCSI, …?) and if there are mechanisms to check which version of the ROM is installed.

 

I have tried ipxe.efi (from http://ipxe.org/download) but that doesn't appear to recognise the AX200. It may be that iPXE needs its own internal driver for the AX200.

 

If an AX200 was deployed in a tablet or similar device without onboard Ethernet I assume that it might offer an option for PXE booting via wireless (PXE is offered as boot options from the EFI "BIOS" on my server with two X722 Ethernet adapters). If so, I am curious to know what would provide the PXE functionality: the EFI "BIOS"; the onboard EFI ROM; an EFI driver; or some combination?

 

My apologies if this is a bit vague. I am still learning about EFI.
