Hi guys,

Finally got some time to look into it.

Long story short, this smells like infrastructure problem.
SARR passes over 546/547 port pair. That is between UEFI PXE client and 
DHCP server (even if it is the same machine).
The next packet is essentially a Boot Server choice step. UEFI PXE 
client sends a unicast discovery packet towards Boot server (same 
machine, same address) coded as DHCP Request.
The release packet is a direct reaction to 3 second timeout (see time 
diff between packet 9 and 11).

See section 2.2.1 in PXE spec: 
http://www.pix.net/software/pxeboot/archive/pxespec.pdf

Please verify that your WDS service is running correctly, since clearly 
there is no reaction to that packet from Boot server.
