subnet masking

Stan Witt — Mon, 21 Aug 2000 15:25:09 GMT

I am still failing the ability to change the subnet mask to 255.255.248.0 (fffff800) I have the patch PHNE_19620 installed. When i try to install PHNE_21767 it fails with do to not being a 64bit system. I tried to set ip_check_subnet_addr 0 but nettune is not found. What bundle/patch could i find nettune in?

Stan,

nettune is only on HP-UX 10.20. The equivalent command on 11.00 is 'ndd'.

Stan,

Further to my previous reply, in 11.00 you may need to disable RFC-1122 address checking with:-

ndd -set /dev/ip ip_check_subnet_addr 0

To make this permanent edit /etc/rc.config.d/nddconf and add a set
of lines:

TRANSPORT_NAME[0]=ip
NDD_NAME[0]=ip_check_subnet_addr
NDD_VALUE[0]=0

Then run /sbin/init.d/net start or reboot.

Regards,
John
