Why each option
To deploy an operating system via Windows Deployment Services (WDS) without using a physical boot disk, the client machine must support network booting capabilities.
An FTP server is used for file transfers but is not the mechanism for network booting and OS deployment through WDS.
PXE (Preboot eXecution Environment) support is essential for network-based operating system deployment without local boot media. It allows client machines to boot directly from the network card and connect to the WDS server to download boot images.
CUPS (Common Unix Printing System) is related to printing services, not operating system deployment.
An installation CD is a physical boot disk, which the question explicitly states is NOT being used.
Concept tested: WDS OS deployment with PXE
