NIC Configuration

[gerbing]

Hello,

please excuse my silly question, but can anybody tell me how I can set the speed of my NIC from 10 to 100 Mbit/s?

If have a HP9000 with HP-UX 11.0

Thanks.

I forgot: I want it without the SAM!
Only with the terminal.

Thanks.

try the lanadmin command.

which Interface is it?
HSC? PB? PCI?
there will be a file in /etc/rc.config.d for the card type that will allow you to set the speed/duplex mode on boot up.
That assumes the card you have supports 100BaseT :-}

Hi

you need to go to the dir /etc/rc.cnofig.d

if you will do ls hp* you will see all the config files of the NIC

if you have the dedault NIC the config file is
hpbase100conf

Thanks a lot.
This helped me.
If I get better I hope I can help you too ;))

By default NIC are you referring to the internal lan1? I have installed a patch PHNE_22244 to resolve an unconfigured PHNE_19020 problem. But I am not sure if the correct hpbase*conf file is being used. How do I ensure the patch is applied for the correct hpbase*conf?

Hi,

1. lanscan command allow you to have the PPA ( physical point of attachment ). If you have multi-lan server . ( let's say : ppa = 0 )

2. lanadmin -S 100000000 0

100000000 : the speed
0 : ppa

Notice : -S is the option ans it's in UPPER CASE.

Hi Gerbing



1. Identify the LAN Interface using the lanscan command to know the interface.
2. Check for the speed set already using the Lanadmin command.
3. Use the command lanadmin ?s 100000 nmid or the ppa to change it to the desired one.
4. Check the setting using the lanadmin command again.
