We could also install metal-core in a way that it also talks to metal-apiserver from within this boot-vrf which completely eliminates the need for weird routes on the switches

| The L3 only boot and registration process can be described as follows: | ||
|
|
||
| - Every server will be scanned on a regular basis from the metal-bmc if there is IPXE is configured as boot iso payload. This is a additional task on the metal-bmc. metal-bmc already scans all servers on a regular basis to gather power metrics etc. | ||
| - If the boot iso is set to ipxe, the boot source override must be set to CDROM instead of PXE from network and a reboot must be triggered (migration to this approach, not when a machine is allocated). |

If we don't plan on removing support for the old PXE boot with this change, it could make sense to track the boot mode of each machine in metal-api. The migration step could then be triggered and tracked by metal-api.
