Conﬁguring and Verifying HP EISA and HSC FDDI/9000

Verifying the Installation

1. Verify that the appropriate device ﬁles have been created. In the

example below, the ﬁrst line lists the HP device ﬁles. The major

number for EISA or HSC FDDI cards is dynamically allocated by the

system. For EISA or HSC FDDI cards, the card instance consists of

the two leftmost digits in the minor number. The second line lists the

diagnostic device ﬁles.

ls -l /dev/lan*

ls -l /dev/nettrace /dev/netlog

2. Check that the hardware state of your EISA or HSC FDDI adapter is

up using the lanscan command:

/usr/sbin/lanscan

In the Net-Interface name (for example lanx), x is the instance

number.

3. Verify that the EISA or HSC FDDI adapter is found by the system

using the dmesg command:

dmesg

If you want to conﬁgure your system for network connectivity, continue

with the next section, “Conﬁguring Network Connectivity.” If not,

continue with “Verifying Remote System Conﬁguration.”
