Apologies for a really unhelpful reply, but we didn't do anything extra
to make it work, or at least not at the network infrastructure level.
All we did for initial testing was make the relevant BIOS changes to
allow UEFI booting, and change the network boot from legacy to UEFI and
ensure it was enabled in the UEFI boot order (this may be an option ROM
setting).
It then just worked for us, without any changes to the PXE helper that
we use for legacy PXE boot, and without any changes to the PXE server end.
We're not using SCCM for this though - we're using the PXE server that
is part of Windows Deployment Services, and I think we're still using
the 2008R2 version of that.
