Why each option
PXE boot environments require DNS to resolve hostnames for boot servers and network resources during the network boot sequence.
Web servers deliver HTTP/HTTPS content and play no role in the PXE boot process, which relies on DHCP, TFTP, and DNS.
In a PXE (Preboot Execution Environment) setup, DNS is required to resolve hostnames of boot infrastructure servers such as DHCP and TFTP servers used during the boot process. Among the listed options, DNS is the only service directly involved in name resolution that supports the network boot workflow.
Proxy servers handle web traffic forwarding and are not part of the PXE boot infrastructure or network boot sequence.
DCCP is a transport-layer protocol, not a server role, and it is not used in PXE boot environments.
