c indicates the create of a vswitch



specifies the name of the virtual switch



n 1

associates the new vswitch with

the physical network device lan1

For example, to create two vswitches: vswA and vswB, enter the following command:

pvmnet

–

c S vswA

hpvmnet

–

S vswB

To verify the creation of the vswitch, enter the following command:
