Abstract
A system for trusted network booting of a server. The system may include a booting server that may contain a booting image and a network server that may boot with the booting image from the booting server. The network server may include a trust anchor that measures the booting image. The system may further include a network controller that controls access to a network. The network controller may verify the measurement of the booting image before allowing the network server to access the network.
