Overview
This chapter contains the following sections:
• Step 1: Checking LAN Installation Prerequisites
• Step 2: Loading LAN Software
• Step 3: Installing LAN Hardware
IMPORTANT If you have a system with HP-UX LAN pre-installed on it, you may skip this
chapter and go directly to chapter 2. Execute the command lanscan to
determine if the HP-UX LAN software and hardware have been pre-installed.
If, in addition, you have a preconfigured system, you may also skip chapter 2,
“Configuring LAN Using SAM.”
If you are unfamiliar with HP-UX LAN products or networking concepts, HP recommends
that you read the Networking Overview manual, as well as Chapter 6, “Network Addressing,”
and Chapter 7, “LAN Device and Interface Terminology,” of this guide before beginning
HP-UX LAN installation.
