Displaying the LAN Station Address
Displaying the LAN Station Address
It is sometimes necessary to supply the LAN station address of your
workstation to other users. For example, if your workstation is to become
a member of a cluster, the cluster administrator needs to know your LAN
station address in order to add your workstation to the cluster. Note that
your LAN station address can be determined using the Boot Console
Interface’s Information Menu.
A LAN station address for your workstation is the label that uniquely
identifies the LAN connection for your workstation at the link level (the
hardware level).
To display your workstation’s LAN station addresses, type the following
at the prompt and press Enter:
Information Menu: Enter command> lanaddress
The LAN station address is displayed as a twelve-digit number in
hexadecimal notation, similar to the following:
LAN Station Address: 001083-000429
The address is for the system’s built-in LAN.
