If you're calling the MSI directly from the command line it is just a matter of adding PROPERTY=VALUE on the command line after the install switches.

msiexec.exe /i setup.msi PROPERTY1="value 1" PROPERTY2=value2

If you're calling the InstallShield bootstrapper (setup.exe) then you'll have to wrap it in a /v switch.

setup.exe /v"PROPERTY1=\"value 1\" PROPERTY2=value2"
