LAN Link Configuration

Fields

Physical path of device adapter

The physical path number corresponds to the slot location of the node's local area network interface controller (LANIC) card. For HP e3000 systems, the path is derived by a basic formula of 4 x slot number. (Example: 4 x 10 = 40, where the LANIC card is installed in slot number 10 and the physical path of the card is 40.)

For some HP systems, you must specify a channel number (ccc) and subchannel number (sss) in the form ccc.sss while others require a bus converter number followed by a slash (/) and then a channel number (ccc) and subchannel number (sss) in the form b/ccc.sss.

If you are unsure of the slot location or of the physical path number to configure for your system, see your system documentation or consult your Hewlett-Packard service representative.

Use factory-configured local station address?

(HP modifiable.) The LANIC board is supplied with a 48-bit station address. These are guaranteed to be unique. Do not change the factory configured local node address except on the specific instructions of your Hewlett-Packard representative.

Default value: Y

Local station address

(modifiable.) This field is to be used only with specific instructions from your Hewlett-Packard representative. It allows you to enter a station address to replace the factory configured address. The format must be compatible with HP software requirements. Your Hewlett-Packard representative will supply instructions in the unlikely event that you need to enter an address to replace the default.
