Network Configuration Worksheet
Fill out one worksheet for the networking data of each LAN port on the combination card you are installing.
Note 1: To configure values permanently, edit the configuration files using SAM or an editor such as “vi”. Using lanadmin
will not preserve your settings across reboots.
Note 2: The speed configuration of the card can be 10, 100, or 1000 Mbit/s and is determined by the speed setting of the hub or
switch port to which the card is connected. The card automatically senses this speed. The Base-T card only runs at one speed
at a time. To verify the speed selection, run lanadmin -x ppa#.
Note 3: The valid MTU size for normal frames using the iether driver on HP-UX 11i v1 or v2 is 1500 bytes. For Jumbo
Frames, the valid MTU size for iether on HP-UX 11i v1 or HP-UX 11i v2 is a number in the range of 1501 to 9000 bytes.
