Programming MAC Address (on I210) into the flash chip using EepromAccessTool when I have multiple NI

JyothiAS — Wed, 20 Sep 2023 10:17:27 GMT

I have multiple NIC chips to be programmed with unique MAC address. Can I do this with EepromAccessTool.
If yes, then what are the parameters I need to configure and how can I do?
If No, is there any change I can do with the script or do we any other tool for this purpose.

Hello @JyothiAS,

Thank you for contacting Intel Embedded Community.

Yes, you can do it, you will need the iNVM image and the EEPROM Access Tool. You can check the following documents:

#572162 - EEPROM Access Tool [EAT].

#513655 - Intel® Ethernet Controller I210 and I211- AT Production NVM Images

The document #572162 includes a user guide, you may check section 4.0 - Using the Tool.

"Users can also program the device together with a MAC address".

Also, you may find all documentation available for the i210 using this link:
