first run

lanadmin

then go into "lan" menu
then by typing "ppa X", where X is your lan card instance, like 0 for lan0, 1 for lan1 etc, then hit enter.
type "display" and hit enter.
Output has two pages and second page shows mainly the error counters.

or this will give you the display output on your screen in one shot: (this is for lan1, modify ppa number according to your case)

echo "lan\nppa 1\ndisplay\n" | lanadmin

hope this helps

ifconfig, lanadmin, lanscan are the other commands..
Check man pages of these for more details.
/etc/rc.config.d/netconf is the file that has all configuration

1. ioscan -fnC lan : look at the "s/w state Column" and ensure it is claimed.

2. lanscan : check the hardware state from o/p.

3. lanadmin
>lan
>ppa 0 (0 for lan0 ...)
>display

Will give you various lan information.

Hi Alan

lanscan and lanadmin are other command and utility for diagnosing problem with lan card. Suggest to isolate network infrastructure related issues as well like swapping patch cord and switch port etc.
