Information About The LAN Configuration Agent

The LAN Configuration Agent is a Windows-based utility that automatically records
your computer’s network parameters (every time Windows starts) and stores them in
the Utility Partition. Note that since some of the network parameters listed above are
user-dependent, the values associated with the last user who logged into Windows will
be used.

In Windows, you can also access the LAN Configuration Agent setup screen. You can
use this to:

Make an immediate copy of the current network settings (for use by e-Diagtools)

Choose whether or not the agent copies your network settings every time Windows
starts up. If you use HP Toptools to set up e-Diagtools network configuration, this
option should be set so the agent copies your network settings at every startup. By
default, this option is set so that Windows copies your network settings every time it
starts up.

Choose whether or not the

F5 - Advanced Config

button is enabled in the Network

Parameters screen. This allows users to set or modify the basic network parameters
when sending the support ticket or updating the BIOS.

To access the agent in Windows, click

Start > Programs > HP e-Diagtools > HP
