displayed during the installation of these operating systems. When you configure
the device, use a static IP address of 169.254.95.130 with a subnet mask of
255.255.0.0.
Note: Older Linux distributions might not detect the LAN over USB interface, and
might require manual configuration. For information about configuring LAN over
USB on specific Linux distributions, see http://www-947.ibm.com/support/entry/
portal/docdisplay?brand=5000008&lndocid=MIGR-5083207 .
The IMM2 LAN over USB interface requires that the usbnet and cdc_ether drivers
be loaded. If the drivers have not been installed, use modprobe to install them.
When these drivers are loaded, the IMM2 USB network interface shows up as a
network device in the operating system. To discover the name that the operating
system has assigned to the IMM2 USB network interface, type:
dmesg | grep -i cdc ether
The interface is configured with ifconfig to have an IP address in the range
169.254.xxx.xxx. For example:
ifconfig IMM_device_name 169.254.1.102 netmask 255.255.0.0
This interface is configured to come up with an IP address in the 169.254.xxx.xxx
range each time that the operating system is booted.
