How must i configure the DHCP-Server that Clients boot CoreOS?

I think nex-server is the IP of the coreos-ipxe-server and image?

i tried coreos_production_pxe.vmlinuz but id didn't work.

it would be nice if you would have it in the tutorial.

You can try this, use coreos-ipxe-server instead of manually configured PXE server. https://coreos.com/docs/running-coreos/bare-metal/booting-with-ipxe/

@davidak You can set the default BIOS filename on your DHCP server to something like http://your-ipxe-server:4777/?profile=${net0/mac} or http://your-ipxe-server:4777/?profile=${uuid} then use the MAC address or UUID as the filename of the profile for that device. The repo owner (Kelsey Hightower) briefly mentions this in a few of his talks, but nothing really covers the basics. The best overview can be found in the Go for Sysadmins conference talk where the owner discusses the application and its use.
