C. Any error message returned? If ifconfig fails and displays an error message,
go to Flowchart 5. Flowchart 5 shows what to do based on the error message.
Otherwise continue to D.
D. Correct ifconfig with non-default flag settings. If ifconfig returns an unexpected
flag setting, re-execute the command with the proper setting. For more information,
refer to the ifconfig(1M) man page. Start again with Flowchart 4.
E. Execute: netstat -inf -inet6. If ifconfig succeeds, then the network interface is
configured correctly. netstat -i displays the number of incoming (Ipkts) and
outgoing (Opkts) packets passed through an interface. No increase in the number
of incoming or outgoing packets would indicate LAN card I/0 problems.
F. Suspect LAN card I/O problems? If the statistics indicate possible LAN card
problems, go to G, otherwise go to Flowchart 2 to test Network Connectivity.
G. Execute: lanadmin. Use lanadmin to ensure the LAN card is operational. A
substantial increase in the number of the Ierrs and Oerrs during a file transfer
attempt might indicate transmission problems.
H. Problem resolved? If you found and corrected the LAN card problem, return to step
E to verify the correction. If corrected, re-execute ifconfig to bring up the interface,
then go to Flowchart 2. If the problem persists, call your HP representative for help.
