How to determine if a system is DHCP/PXE boot capable?

Hi all:

Got some Dell 1550 systems with RedHat AS 2.1 installed. Question, how can I tell if the network card that is installed in these servers is DHCP/PXE boot capable?

Many thanks!

Set the Dell to boot from network card.Connect another host with network monitor installed to a hub with Dell and see what's going on upon Dell's boot.
