We will present the case of [dedicated server(s)](https://www.ovhcloud.com/en-gb/bare-metal/) configured in **OLA** mode, i.e. with **only** private networks.

This choice offers your infrastructure the best possible isolation/protection for your hosted service.<br>

The only significant difference is that [private networks](https://docs.ovh.com/fr/ovhcloud-connect/presentation-concepts/#prive) do not have access to everything that does not belong to your infrastructure.<br>

As a result, a server isolated by its private network prevents the boot mechanism. This means that when systems are booted via the **Netboot** (Network Boot) method, they are based on OVHcloud’s internal network and shared services.

- The **rEFInd** solution, in the form of a **BootLoader**, was chosen because it was perfectly adapted. It will allow the search of boot sectors of client machines: local disk, USB, etc.
