lan

[Indrajit Bhagat]

How can distinguish, between front lan back lan.

Hello Indrajit:

In out of lanscan command you can see the hardware path, core lan and others cards of network

Such a meaningless question!
One is in the back, one maybe somewhere else - lol!

Think about a better question, please!

Indrajit,

You really need to be more specific here. Are you referring to 2 different networks? Maybe one for backups (back lan) and one for general server access (front lan)?
netstat -ni will show you configured interfaces with addresses. From here you can determine which one is connected to which network.

regards,

Richard

The only server I'm aware at this moment having a front LAN connector is the "old" BL60p blade, please post at least the output of

"# model"
and
"# uname -a"

when asking any hardware related question!

You can also use

#ioscan -fnC lan
