Enable dhcp in lan0 at bootup

[Soma_1]

Hi all,
I have installed HPUX 11i on a A Class machine ( I used a cd that said "Technical Computing Operating Environment Core OE install and recovery".
Now tt detects my lan card as lan0 and then Iam able to give lan0 an static ip, but when I changed /etc/rc.config.d/netconf file to enable dhcp on lan0 and then rebooted the box Iam not geting the ipaddress for the lan0. Ive attached my netconf file can you see if it is wrong.
Also I can't even see the dhcp request reaching the dhcp server( DHCP server is a solaris box, I run /usr/sbin/dhcpd -d -a)

Also, How can I make lan0 to get a dhcp address from command line.

One more question,
What software is required on the server to make lan cards get dhcp based address ?
I can verify if that is properly installed or not.

DHCP is run with /sbin/auto_parms based on the flags set in netconf. Check the log files /tmp/auto_parms.log and /tmp/dhcpclient.log. You will get more information there.

Hi,

You can configure DHCP from sam itself. Go to Sam -> Networking and Communication --> Network Interface Cards --> Selcect lan0 -> Select Action from Toolbar --> Select Configure / Modify and Enable DHCP Client Over there. Remove the static IP assigned to this lan port.

Hope this helps.

hi guys,
I want to keep lan1 disabled at boot time and execute some command line and get dhcp ip. This is for "lan1".
For "lan0" ip should be given dhcp at boot time.
What should I do?
Thank You,
Soma
