Editing a Repository

Repositories > Edit Repository

You can change the following when editing an existing repository in the Edit Repository dialog.

  • Description - A description of repository.
  • PXE Start Address - The PXE starting address for auto deployment. Ensure the range of IP addresses you specify are not used by your regular network. For example, if your regular, internal network uses a 192.168.1.x range of IP addresses but no other 192.168.x.x IP addresses, you could use a starting address of 192.168.2.x for auto deploy. KID only lets you specify the three octets of the starting address. It assumes all IP addresses between 2 and 252 in the last octet are available for auto deploy.
  • PXE End Address - The PXE ending address for auto deployment.
  • Set Auto Deploy On - If checked, auto deploy is enabled. Auto Deploy deploys the repository's default image to any "unknown" computer that boots up, has the NIC bootup option enabled, and connects to the same physical network as the repository. An "unknown" computer is a computer that does not have an agent on it and has not had an image deployed to it since Auto Deploy was last enabled.
  • Image - If Set Auto Deploy On is checked, select the default image to use for auto deploy.
