Abstract

ABSTRACT

Technological developments have provided many changes in all activities. Technology makes work faster and more efficient. Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) is one of the technological developments in the network field. PXE is a mechanism on the network that allows a client to boot and enter the operating system without using a hard drive. There are several advantages to implementing this method, including the ease of carrying out laboratory maintenance, security from misuse of computers, and viruses. The network laboratory is one of the laboratories used by the Computer and Network Maintenance study program at AKN Pacitan. Educational Laboratory Institutions (PLP) are in charge of carrying out maintenance to ensure the computer can run normally, if there is damage such as a virus attack, computer abuse, hardware then PLP must make repairs. This requires a long process. So that the PXE method is very appropriate to be applied in network laboratories. The application of PXE in a network laboratory was successfully carried out. Client computers can run without using a hard drive. The computer is running normally with five clients. With an average network speed of 98Mbps and using conventional hard drives for reading and storing, the process was extremely slow for all 14 clients running concurrently.
