Configuration Using SAM
Chapter 2 43
For HP-PB and EISA Token Ring, you can install patches to
increase the MTU size to 4500. Refer to Table 3-2 for a list of
patches.
Activate the SAM on-line help for additional information on
these options.
Activate the OK button to perform the task and return to the
Configure LAN Card window.
7. Activate the OK button at the Configure LAN Card window to
configure and enable your Token Ring card.
If the software is correctly configured, SAM displays the Network
Card Configuration object list with the status Enabled for your card;
otherwise, SAM displays an error message.
8. At the Network Interface Card menu, select Exit from the “File”
menu.
9. Choose Exit SAM from the “File” menu at the Networking and
Communications window.
If you have moved or removed any Token Ring cards from the
system, HP recommends that you verify the IP/Internet address of
every card in the backplane before leaving SAM.
10. Verify that the Token Ring device files have been created correctly by
executing the HP-UX commands:
cd /dev
ls -l lan*
If the Token Ring device file has not been created, execute the script:
/usr/sbin/hptoken_init devfile
Refer to Chapter 3, Token Ring Resources, for descriptions of Token Ring
device files. If you want to configure your system for network
connectivity, continue with the next section, “Step 2: Configuring
Network Connectivity”. If not, continue to “Step 3: Verifying the
Installation.”
