lanconfig utility in HP-UX 11

[Mihails Nikitins]

Hello,

Do I understand it correctly that utility 'lanconfig' was removed from HP-UX 11.0?

In HP-UX 10.20 it was called by /sbin/init.d/net script which read parameters from /etc/rc.config.d/netconf
like LANCONFIG_ARGS[0]="ether"

Does HP-UX 11.0 specify level 2 protocol type by another utility?

Thanks for your comments!

BR,

Goodluck,

hey,

For lan card config, use:

'set_parms' or 'ifconfig'

See the man pages of lanadmin, lanscan, netstat too

HTH,

Hi Mihails,

Try this link,

Here is the actual info,

lanconfig (functionality included in ifconfig/lanadmin).

Hope this helps.

hi,

lanadmin is the command!

Have a look at /usr/share/doc/11.00RelNotes regarding the change from lanconfig to lanadmin.

HI
You still have /sbin/init.d/net script and /etc/rc.config.d/netconf parameter file in 11.xx
Use lanadmin/landiag command to administer lan card manually.
Check #man lanadmin.

Thanks.

Thanks to all of you! So, encapsulation type seems to be defined by interface name (lan or snap) in ifconfig command. LANCONFIG_ARGS from netconf file are just ignored.
