area network (LAN). When configuring network connectivity, you will
add remote system names and remote system IP addresses for network
connectivity, and specify default gateway information.
NOTE Using SAM is the preferred method for HP EISA FDDI/9000 or HSC
FDDI/9000 configuration. However, SAM currently does not support the
domain name format. The domain name format is used with the BIND
name service provided with Internet Services/ 9000. If you are using the
BIND name service, you can configure the Network Interface Card, but
you cannot configure remote connectivity. You may want to configure HP
EISA FDDI/9000 or HSC FDDI/9000 manually. See the Installing and
Administering LAN/9000 Software manual for detailed instructions on
how to install and configure software manually.
