Abstract

See full text

Method and apparatus for storing a Media Access Control (MAC) address in an EPROM disposed on a target interactive network board having a local area network interface comprises the step of activating a LAN communication program. The communication program operates to broadcast an inquiry through the LAN for the target interactive network board, to receive location information of the target interactive network board in response to the broadcast inquiry, and to establish communication with the target interactive network board. The MAC address is downloaded to a RAM on the board, verified therein, and loaded into the EPROM from the RAM.
