Can you configure Dell KACE to point to a RH Satellite?

Wild shot in the dark as both are exactly ubiquitous technologies, but here it goes: Anybody have any experience using a Dell KACE to PXE boot to a Red Hat Satellite kickstart install? I've set up the kickstart by itself before but I'm not sure there's a way to configure the KACE so that it will create an option to boot to the PXE menu provided by the satellite or to reference particular kickstart trees on the satellite.

Like I said, wild shot in the dark, but I just thought I'd ask and see what stuck.

EDIT:

As soon as I finished posting this, this occurred to me: create a boot iso and upload it to the KACE as bootable media. So FWIW, this really obscure question has a public domain answer now.
