Explanation

PXE (Preboot Execution Environment) is a network boot standard that allows a computer to boot from and load an operating system image hosted on a network server (typically via TFTP/DHCP). This is the standard method for deploying OS installations across multiple machines over a network without local media. SSD (A), optical drive (B), and flash drive (C) are all local storage boot methods that require physical media at each machine.
