Hi,
I just wanted to share that the maintenance BIOSes released for the Dell platforms with Type-C this past week enables the MAC address pass through feature in UEFI, so any network booted machines will offer the auxiliary MAC to the DHCP server. In Windows a network booted machine will always use auxiliary MAC now.
XPS 9350 (BIOS 1.4.4): http://goo.gl/7Sw2DZ
Please let me know what else can be done for this patch to make it acceptable so we can have parity for Linux.
Thanks,
