A technician must roll out Windows 10 Enterprise to 250 brand-new desktops that will be removed from their boxes at remote sites. Each PC can obtain an IP address from DHCP and supports PXE boot, but company policy forbids shipping USB media or interacting with the machines once they are powered on. Which combination of boot method and installation type BEST satisfies these requirements?
External drive boot with a repair installation
USB boot followed by a clean installation wizard
Internet-based boot with an in-place upgrade
Network (PXE) boot followed by a zero-touch deployment image
PXE allows a computer to download a network boot program from a deployment server and start the operating-system installer across the LAN. When that process is paired with a zero-touch (unattended) deployment task sequence, Windows can be installed without any technician sitting at the keyboard. A USB, external drive, or internet-based approach would either violate corporate policy or still require some on-site action. An in-place upgrade or repair install also would not apply because no OS is present on the new hardware.
