Explanation
PXE (Preboot Execution Environment) is a network boot standard that allows a computer to boot using a network interface card (NIC) before the local storage device is loaded. The system receives its bootstrap/OS image files from a remote server using protocols like DHCP and TFTP. This is commonly used for diskless workstations and enterprise OS deployments. IDS is an Intrusion Detection System (security), PAN is a Personal Area Network, and NAT is Network Address Translation - none of which are boot methods.
