TCP/IP Settings

Is there anyway to incorporate TCP/IP settings

Into an unnattended Install. Have used nLite to input my domain details and login details, but dont know how to add my Ip settings.

Many thanks Iain

It is possible using the normal setupmgr.exe tool to fill in your domain settings. Why do you want to insert tcp/ip settings aswell? If you do that, you have to think about duplications and stuff like that. Why don't you use DHCP to distribute those ? You can use fixed assignment using dhcp. It's changable afterwards.

you can use command line with netsh

@echo off
set interface_name=Local Network Connection
rem ip
netsh interface ip set address name="%interface_name%" static ip mask gateway 1
rem dns
netsh interface ip set dns name="%interface_name%" static dns_ip

edit: change ip , mask , gateway and dns_ip to your real IP ...

@Sonic, so my batch file would look like this????

@echo off
set interface_name=Local Network Connection
rem ip
netsh interface ip set address name="%interface_name%" static ip 192.168.2.3 mask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.68.2.1
rem dns
netsh interface ip set dns name="%interface_name%" static dns_ip 192.168.2.3

Depending on your imaging solution, it is possible to set IP addres info in your image safe data, so after restore it will be restored aswell. I use this to set the original netbios name to the old value, and leaving auto naming on during restore. If no old name is found, it defaults to auto generated name.

In my solution it is possible to set other info aswell (SID, ip addres, dns info, etc)

In the unattended section of nLite you can customize your TCP/IP settings for your network adapter and you can input all those things there.
