@itupshot I think I've read that if you're Netbooting across subnets that you need to have IP helpers setup on your network gear to facilitate Netbooting. I don't think that is the case for the software update portion of things though. Hopefully someone else can confirm.

That's correct, for Netboot (no matter whether you're using Apple's, the NetSUS, or something else) it needs to either be on the same subnet or IP Helpers need to be put in place to allow the service advertisement to cross subnets. The IP Helper is pretty standard for these kinds of services, much like PXE on the Windows side of the world.

@mpermann @john_wetter Thank you for your replies.

It won't be a big deal to put it on the same subnet, but I figured I'd ask since we have a servers' subnet. Some of our servers straddle multiple subnets (multiple NICs) so, I could set this one up that way too: one NIC on the servers' subnet, and the second NIC on the clients' subnet.

Thank you again!

Anyone getting an error when importing the appliance into ESX 6?

The OVF Package requires unsupported hardware
Details: Line 25: Unsupported hardware family 'virtualbox-2.2'.

Fixed: Had to extract the ova file with 7-Zip and edit the ovf file to say vmx-11 where it says virtualbox-2.2. I could then import the ovf file directly without repackaging into ova.
