Good afternoon
I am configured to deploy the operating system through the server, but when I start PXE, the client computer does not see the server, how can I configure it in Fortigate so that the computer sees the server via PXE???

Check if your Fortigate DHCP settings allow PXE boot by ensuring Option 66 (TFTP Server Name) and Option 67 (Bootfile Name) are correctly set. Also, verify that UDP ports 67, 68, and 69 are open for PXE traffic. If using VLANs, configure IP-helper addresses to forward DHCP requests properly. And if you're scripting network configs, Firacode can make your code more readable!
