AB545A PCI-X 4-Port Gigabit Ethernet Card Overview
Product Overview
Verifying the LAN installation
5
When you use netstat -in, the output values Ipkts and Opkts should be incrementing.
• Installation is complete when you have successfully run linkloop, ping and netstat. To configure
remote systems, see the Ethernet Support Guide available on the web at http://docs.hp.com. Do this step
only if remote systems have not been previously configured.
• Optionally, if you want to verify that the iether driver appears for each installed card, enter: ioscan
-fknClan
The ioscan output for each port would look something like the following:
Class I H/W Path Driver S/W State H/W Type Description
lan 3 1/0/2/1/0/6/0 iether CLAIMED INTERFACE HP AB545-60001 PCI/PCI-X 4-port
1000B-T Adapter
The last two digits of the hardware path (third column) reflect the path of each port -- in the sample
output shown, the “0” indicates LAN A (as shown in Figure 1). Both ports need to show as CLAIMED here.
