Scripting network setup

[PJC]

Hi All!

I am looking for a way to script (via batch file, programatically or
some other method) setup, naming, and bridging network adpaters in my
XP Embedded system. Basically, I have two NICs. I would like to name
them (though this is not critical), then I want to assign an IP address
to NIC1 and then setup NIC2 to hand out DHCP and bridge traffic to
NIC1.

I do this now manually and by running the Network Setup Wizard to
bridge the two NICs together.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this?

Thanks!

PJC

You can use the netsh command.

Here's a a previous topic where it was discussed.

You can also check out these links for some info on Netsh.
