Step 7: Verifying the Installation
Step 7: Verifying the Installation
Once your 10/100Base-TX/9000 software is installed, fully configured
and running, you should run the following commands to verify
10/100Base-TX hardware and software installation. Refer to the online
man pages for complete descriptions of the commands listed below.
1. To check that the link is working, enter the linkloop command at the
HP-UX prompt. In this example, 5 is the Network Management ID
(NMID) of your 10/100Base-TX card and 0x080009266C3F is the
station address of a local or remote node. (You can obtain the NMID
and the local station address from the lanscan command.)
linkloop -i 5 0x080009266C3F
100Base-TX/9000 installation is verified if linkloop succeeds. You can
further verify the link by doing the following steps.
2. To check that the network connection is working, enter the ping
command at the HP-UX prompt. In this example, 191.2.1.2 is the
configured IP/Internet address of the remote system.
ping 191.2.1.2
3. To view information about the station address, hardware state, and
network interface state of your 10/100Base-TX card, enter the
lanscan command at the HP-UX prompt as shown in the example
below:
lanscan
4. To show the number of packets sent or received, and any link errors,
enter the netstat -i command at the HP-UX prompt as shown below:
netstat -i
5. To show the status of the 10/100Base-TX interface, enter the
lanadmin diagnostic command at the HP-UX prompt. For example:
lanadmin
After entering the utility, enter the following lanadmin menu
commands in sequence to show the status of the 10/100Base-TX
device with the NMID of 5.
