A. B. C. D.D.
The boot method that initiates an upgrade over the network is PXE (Preboot Execution Environment).
PXE allows a computer to boot and install an operating system over a network connection instead of using physical media, such as a CD/DVD or USB flash drive. This can be useful when a computer does not have a CD/DVD drive or the user does not have physical media for the operating system.
To perform an upgrade over the network using PXE, the computer must support network booting and be configured to boot from the network. The technician will need to set up a PXE server on the network, which will host the Windows 10 installation files. The computer will then boot from the network and connect to the PXE server to begin the upgrade process.
In this scenario, the technician has only one installation disc, so upgrading multiple machines using physical media would be time-consuming and inefficient. Upgrading over the network using PXE allows the technician to upgrade multiple machines simultaneously, saving time and effort.
In summary, the correct answer is D, PXE.
