Bug Description

DHCP option 175 (ipxe client) is not handled by contrail dhcp.
As result it is not possible to organize chainloading from pxe to ipxe for baremetal nodes that do
not support ipxe. This leads to performance problems/limitations for clouds with mixed pxe/ipxe servers.

For example in DNSMASQ chainloading may be realized by configing conditional replies: https://www.richud.com/wiki/Network_iPXE_dnsmasq_Examples_PXE_BOOT#dnsmasq.conf_real_DHCP_server
