HPUX NIC Mode settings

[Jerry Maesky_1]

How can we change our communications from Half-Duplex to Full-Duplex without using SAM. Presently using HPUX 10.20 & 11.0.

[John Palmer]

In flight, use lanadmin. To permanently change the settings, see the relevant hp*conf file in /etc/rc.config.d (depends on the driver).

Regards,
John

for 10.20 use lanconfig

[Steve Lewis]

For 10.20,
Use lanscan to get the NMID of the card.
Check the settings using:
lanadmin -x [nmid]
Set it using:
lanadmin -X 100FD [nmid]

For 11.x then hardest part is finding the correct PPA, it starts at 0.
Get the PPA of the card using lanscan.
Check the settings using:
lanadmin -x [ppa]
Set it using:
lanadmin -X 100FD [ppa]
lanadmin -X 1000FD [ppa]

Or to make it auto-configure:
lanadmin -X AUTO_ON [ppa]
I can only get our 1000base-SX cards to work when I use AUTO_ON.

Check it afterwards.
