Network problem hp-ux 11.00

[Hanwant Verma_1]

I installed software for my eisa mux card from HP-UX appliaction cd and now after restarting my network has gone down, i cant ping and telnet to other servers. What is the problem?

dmesg

# could be an unrelated failure.

ioscan -fnC lan

# See if something has failed.

lanscan

lanadmin -x

If everything seems okay, follow the rule when stuff breaks. Reverse the last thing you did to the system.

Hi,

Maybe you need to run the eisa_config command?
See details here:

Hi,

According to the install instructions you should check for patches.

Did you follow the instuctions ? first install the patch then software then the card ?

j2467c was already installed then i installed j2483a software for my mux and then restart and then the network went down.

Have you checked log files? What does /etc/rc.log say at the point that it tries to start networking? Anything in dmesg or syslog.log?

What about ioscan? Do the network cards still show claimed? HAve you tried lanscan and ifconfig to see if the cards are configured?

Ok i found the solution, my DHCP was enabled, i disabled the DHCP and now network is working fine.

Thanks anyway.
