GbE Region

BIOS .bin 16.0 KB Shared

Gigabit Ethernet region split from an Intel SPI flash layout, 16 KB in size. The GbE region holds configuration for the onboard Intel network controller, including the MAC address, and is defined by the flash descriptor. The name gives no board or model, so it is only useful on the platform it came from. Technicians restore it when a LAN port stops working or the MAC address is lost after a careless reflash. Insert it at the correct offset with a tool like FITC or UEFITool rather than writing it alone.
