KB104904 - Using the IPINFO.INF to Customize TCP/IP Installation

MORE INFORMATION

The [DefaultIPInfo] section contains the following lines

   DefaultGateway ="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx",

where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx represents a valid IP address for the default gateway. If the default gateway is unknown, it can be left blank.

   NumberOfIPAddresses = X,

where X is the number of IP addresses for the computer.

   IPAddress[Y]="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
   SubnetMask[Y]="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx",

a separate pair of the two values above will be present for each NIC on the computer. These values may be left blank to reflect no default value. The quotation marks MUST be present even if no default value is specified.

By default, the TCP/IP installation program sets the subnet mask based on the address class of the workstation's IP address. For example, if you set up a computer with 1 NIC, use Class A addresses, and subnet on the second octet, you may modify the IPINFO.INF file as follows:

   [DefaultIPInfo]
   DefaultGateway = "102.64.0.1"
   NumberOfIPAddresses = 1
   IPAdress1 = "102.64.0.100"
   SubnetMask1 = "255.192.0.0"
