Hi

How to Use the Netsh.exe Tool and Command-Line Switches
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;242468


Some simple examples:

For a Static IP use:
netsh interface ip set address "Local Area Connection" static 125.187.7.56
255.0.0.0

And for DHCP use:
netsh interface ip set address "Local Area Connection" DHCP

And a trick that helped me:

Dump the current settings to a "script file" suitable for
reconfiguring the station:

netsh dump >dump.txt

Now you can open, and review or edit the dump.txt
file.

You can also dump specific contexts (interface, AAAA, etc.)
or just edit out the pieces you need/don't need.\


Then run:

netsh -f dump.txt

And you get those settings reapplied (be careful.)
