Flowchart 2A Procedures
A. Execute lanscan. Execute lanscan to display information about
Token Ring cards that are successfully bound to the system. For
example, to check the cards on HP-UX, enter: lanscan.
B. Is your Token Ring interface displayed and correct? lanscan is
successful if the output shows information about every networking
card in the hardware backplane whether the card state is UP or
DOWN. The Hardware Path of one of the entries should correspond
to your Token Ring card. Token Ring cards are identified by the MAC
type 802.5.
C. Is your system a Model 712, HP 9000 EISA, or PCI? Follow the
flowchart corresponding to your system.
D. Run ioscan -f. ioscan -f will scan the system hardware and list the
results. LAN output similar to the following will be displayed:
E. Is driver in kernel? If the driver has not been generated into the
kernel, ioscan output will be:
The hardware path is 5/0/7 for the Token Ring card above.
F. Device displayed? If the device card is broken, no entry for the
hardware path in which the card is inserted will be displayed.
G. Verify or edit /stand/system, rebuild kernel, and reboot. Verify
or edit /stand/system contains the token3 or pcitr keyword. If not,
see “Creating a New Kernel” in the Installing and Administering
