Flowchart 5a Procedures

• Execute lanscan command and verify your interface is displayed by

the system.

• If it is displayed, does the hardware state display show “UP”? If so,

continue to the netfmt and lanadmin Test. If not, run cable LED test

from Table 3.1.

• Verify the output from the ioscan shows the adapter “CLAIMED” by

the system. If it is claimed, check adapter installation and re-seat

and/or reset adapter.

• If the adapter is not claimed, the Driver and Class will indicate

“unknown”. Install the PCI FDDI driver and verify or edit

/stand/system to contain the swinstall keyword (see the “Installing

an Administering LAN/9000 Software” manual for instructions on

how to edit /stand/system and create a new kernel.) Then reboot the

system and check adapter installation and re-seat and/or reset

adapter.

• If the problem is ﬁxed, stop, else perform the Network Test.
