mstconfig – Changing Device Configuration Tool
The mstconfig tool allows the user to change some of the device configurations without
reburning the firmware. The configuration is also kept after reset.
By default, mstconfig shows the configurations that will be loaded in the next boot.

the configurations that are used by the current running firmware.
