Using the LAN MAC EEPROM Utility
You can use the MAC.BAT utility to write the MAC.CFG file to the EEPROM under DOS mode.
1.
Use a text editor (for example: Notepad) to open the MAC.CFG file. You can see the MAC.CFG contents
as below:
WriteData= '001122334455' <------- MAC value
StartAddr=7A <------- MAC address
WriteLeng=6 <------- MAC value length
KeepByte=0 <------- can be any value
2.
Boot into DOS.
3.
Execute
MAC.BAT
to write MAC information to eeprom.
WriteData = ‘001122334455'
MAC value
StartAddr=7A
MAC address
WriteLeng=6
MAC value length
KeepByte=0
don’t care
