net
net — MOP function
Using a specified port, performs basic maintenance operations protocol (MOP)
operations.
The net command performs basic MOP operations, such as, loopback, request
IDs, and remote file loads. The net command also provides the means to observe
the status of a network port. Specifically, the net command with the -s option
displays the current status of a port including the contents of the MOP counters.
This is useful for monitoring port activities and trying to isolate network failures.
To display the Ethernet station address, enter:
>>> net -sa ewa0
