MBACFG syntax
Usage: mbacfg [/x] [/i] [/sX] [@configuration file | parameter list]
options:
/? - show this help
/x - reboot the PC after configuring with the new settings
/I - display ROM information
/sX - if multiple NICs with MBA are in the PC, select MBA number X in the
list
When you execute MBACFG on a PC containing more than one NIC with MBA,
MBACFG will display a selection menu listing the MBAs that it finds. You can then
select the MBA that you wish to configure. The selection menu will show some
technical information on each MBA; such as the PCI Device and Vendor IDs, the
PCI Bus and Slot numbers, and whether the MBA resides on a NIC or is integrated
into the PC BIOS. You may use this information to identify the specific MBA that
you wish to select. You may also use the /s command line option to automatically
select a NIC from the selection menu list.
