SCCM client 1906 failure with error 0x80096005

by 2 Comments

In this post, I will be discussing the issue related to SCCM client installation on Windows 7 with SCCM 1906 in use.
Everything was working fine with Windows 7 Task Sequence through SCCM 1902. Once I upgraded to SCCM 1906, Windows 7 task sequence was failing on setup “Setup Windows and Configuration Manager” while downloading the binaries.

SCCM client was not getting installed even if it tried manually, this wasn’t the issue with Windows 10 builds.

IP Helper-Address Configuration for PXE Boot

by 3 Comments

To support BIOS & UEFI Firmware based hardware, we need to execute following commands on Cisco Switch (Global Configuration Mode):

IP helper-address <IP address of DHCP server>
IP helper-address <IP address of WDS server>
IP forward-protocol UDP 4011

CONFIGURATION of IP Helper Tables explained

When the PXE client PC, the DHCP server, and WDS Server, are located on different subnets or vlans, IP helper tables need to be set up in the routers/switches so that the PXE network requests can be routed correctly to the appropriate server. Once the PXE network requests are routed correctly. the appropriate servers can answer. Requirement here is:

  • Client to get IP address from DHCP Server
  • Directing a client to appropriate Network Boot Program (wdsnbp.com or wdsmgfw.efi)
