Gbit after ignite

[Donald Kok]

Hi there,

From an ignitetape (ux 11.0)I installed a new machine. This new machine has gigabit ethernetcards and fibrecards:

gbit: A6825-60101
fibre: Tachyon XL2 Fibre

Can you tell me how to get these things to work?

TIA

Mount the Application CD # 1 for 11.0 that you have.

Inside this CD will be a Table of Contents file

ll /cdrom |grep -i content
OR
ll /cdrom |grep -i table

'vi' this file, and look for the Product Number A6825, then scroll back to find out which Application CD it is on.

Load this Application CD, and install the Drivers for A6825 using 'swinstall'.

Share and Enjoy! Ian

You need to load the appropriate software, patches, and drivers into the kernel.

Gbit: igelan product A6825A is on the application disk. The card will bind to the driver igelan and you'll configure /etc/rc.config.d/hpigelanconf
It requires the latest HP-UX 11.0 Quality Pack and patches PHNE_26250 and PHCO_25902. These patches have dependencies:
PHCO_25902
PHCO_26017
PHNE_21767
PHNE_22566
PHNE_26250


Fibre:
Download A6795A version: B.11.00.10 from
http://www.software.hp.com/cgi-bin/swdepot_parser.cgi/cgi/displayProductInfo.pl?productNumber=A6795A Order of install is very important. So use the installation instructions from http://www.software.hp.com/cgi-bin/swdepot_parser.cgi/cgi/displayProductInfo.pl?productNumber=A6795A&oper=install. This patch also lists a required patch PHKL_23939. It has the following dependencies:
