Hello there!
we are upgrading from an HP9000 H50 to an L1000 rp5400. Unix 10.2 migration to 11.0. The new machine has been loaded with the OS and we can't find our routers in the new machine. Any suggestions on how to find the routers. All help will be rewarded with points.

Thanx,

Carla

Find or configure?

Find:

netstat -rn (* note default line entry *)

ping default ip (* if OK then you've got connectivity to network *)

Configure:

set_parms initial (* Although you will be asked to setup everything, hostname, ip, default gateway, ntp ip, nis ip, etc., just re-enter what is already there until you get to the right data field *)

Verify in /etc/rc.config.d/netconf

You can also add default gateway this way:

route add 0.0.0.0 netmask ip

for example,

route add 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 192.63.24.243

Hi,

Perhaps this is not the right place to post about HPUX but,

check it out the subnetmask, don't assume the default one.

cd /etc/rc.config.d

edit netconf and see the subnetmask

Thanx for the help guys. I didn't notice I was in the Linux admin until after I clicked the submit button. Either way, my question is answered. You guys are great! Have a wonderful weekend.
