CentOS/RH 7.7 https boot?


We have a server which acts as a PXE boot server for CentOS 7.7 which works just fine.
However, the first part of the client boot process uses TFTP, which is not secure.
We would like to configure the boot server so that the clients can only boot directly from UEFI using https.
Some Googling implies that this can be done with RH/CentOS 8.x, but I can't find any information as to whether this is possible with RH/CentOS 7.7.

Does anybody know if we can configure our server to use only the https protocol when boot serving 7.7?

... yes, one day we'll switch to CentOS/RH 8.x, one day...

Regards
Kaegran

Go to IPXE maybe?
