6 EEPROM.TXT format

A set of commands is defined to allow user to change EEPROM.BIN content. To update
EEPROM.BIN, user must enter –e <code> -geneep options at the command prompt. A password
must be entered to run this option. The 5704, Dual MAC, device uses one single eeprom.bin on both
MAC channel configurations. Most of the configurations are shared expect the following commands:
PXE
PXE_SPEED
WOL
ASF
The WOL and ASF setting cannot be enabled on both channel at the same time. For example, if the
primary WOL is already enabled, and the user try to enable secondary device's WOL, the primary's
WOL setting will be disabled with the following message:
** Warning, primary device WOL is disabled
By default, all commands configure the primary channel until the command MAC is used to select
other channel.
