When testing for connectivity Use NetCat instead of ping to test BMC and NTP connection, since some firewalls might block ICMP.
On the ohter hand the "bmc_ip" variable should not be required for vendor: PXE

@nocturnalastro in this case it is OK to have a ping because that IP address does not correspond to any type of service so I wouldn't know to which port NetCat should probe. Besides it is configurable to any host the user chooses.
