How to get network card's CardName,CardVendorID,VenderID on HP-UX?

[yang shaohua]

for example,I have a network card on device,I tried to use command "ioscan",but the output hasn't my requested information.
# ioscan -u |grep lan
0/1/2/0 lan HP PCI-X 1000Base-T Dual-port Built-in
I used "lanscan" and "lanadmin", still can get my needed information.
So, How to get network card's CardName,CardVendorID,VenderID on HP-UX?

Hi,

this is your built-in(on board) network card. try this

lanadmin -x vpd 0

[yang shaohua]

hi,thank you for response.
here is the result on my side:
# lanadmin -x vpd 0
The option "vpd" is not valid
speed Display the speed and duplexity of the link
fctrl Display whether Receive Flow Control is enabled or not
cko Determine if hardware TCP/UDP (IPv4) checksum offload is enabled
type Display medium type of the interface
send_max_bufs Display the value of send buffer coalescing threshold
recv_max_bufs Display the value of recv buffer coalescing threshold
send_coal_ticks Display the value of send interrupt coalescing ticks
recv_coal_ticks Display the value of recv interrupt coalescing ticks
itrmode Display the value of interrupt throttling mode
card_info Display the adapter and driver revision and settings
stats drv Display driver and adapter statistics
vmtu Display the value of Virtual MTU for TCP Segmentation Offload

diag_thresh Display the value of packet rate threshold for diagnostics
#

I used "card_info",the result is:
# lanadmin -x card_info 0

run mstm, select your device, than select tools(with tab)-> information -> run

Welcome to ITRC Forums!

In your ioscan output, "Built-in" means this NIC is integrated into the system board, so it's part of the base system and cannot be removed. It is not actually a separate "card" at all.

Since the entire system board is made by HP, the CardVendorID and "VenderID" both must be HP.

You could use "HP PCI-X 1000Base-T Dual-port Built-in" as the CardName.

Thanks again!

Welcome to ITRC forum;

in addition to others they gave adequate information, you can try to pick up more info:

# echo "selclass qualifier lan;info;wait;infolog"|cstm

Matti - 99 times out of 10 the *sub* vendor ID will be HP and the *sub* product ID will be the HP assigned one. The Product and Vendor IDs will be those of the OEM.

That said, I never did need to retrieve those under HP-UX - since the only "supported" (and generally "working" NICs are those for which ioscan -fk would give the full "HP" name that was enough.
