Or use the lanscan or nwmgr command to get the name of the Net Interface Name or
ppa number or nmid number. Once you have the ppa number, for example lan17, you
can issue these following commands one at a time:
lanadmin
lan
ppa
17
display
The Operation Status should be DOWN.
Or, use as follows, to get the entire list of interfaces on your system. Look for value of
Interface State for the corresponding interface/ppa (in the following example, lan3):
Name/ Interface Station Sub- Interface Related
ClassInstance State Address system Type Interface
============== ========= ============== ======== ==============
=========
lan3 DOWN 0x00306E289745 igelan 1000Base-T
nwmgr
The Interface State should be DOWN.
• Ensure that the host system contains the correct patch level. To find out which version of
the driver is currently installed, execute the command:
what /stand/vmunix | grep btlan
Or use the command:
swlist -l product | grep 100
This should display an ASCII string that indicates the Version and possibly Patch level of
the driver. Many problems have been resolved with newer versions of the driver, which
can be obtained from the latest patches for the 100Base-T cards along with any dependent
patches. Work with the HP Response Center to determine if there is a newer driver that
fixes the symptoms of the problem you are facing.
There are three types of patches that are recommended:
- Patches for software driver
