lan ids

Steve Roberts_3 — Tue, 17 Dec 2002 15:48:37 GMT

I have been testing some apps within a service guard configuration. My OSI lan (lan0) is set as snap0. The cmclconfig.ascii file was referencing 'lan0' not 'snap0'. No problems.

I have just removed all my apps and the SG config and I am now rebuilding.

cmclconfig.ascii now fails the cmcheckconf with lan0 set. If I set the ref to snap0 cmcheckconf is ok.

cmquerycl also fails to pick out the snap0 lan.
cmscancl returns snap0 for the ioscan -i check??

any explanations on why this might happen.
Thanks

Hi,

what version of MC/SG is installed? Do you have installed the latest MC/SG patch?

To change the name for lan0 is absolutly not recommended!!! Why you changed the device name?

I would recommed to rename the laninterface back to lan0.

Regrads,
Armin

Iam using SG A.11.09.

The snap0 name is the PPA name that is set when
ethernet 802.3 is set as opposed to just ethernet.

I have not intentionaly changed the network
interface name.

I have tried deleting and recreating the lan card. No change tho.
