Installing and Configuring PCI 10/100 Base-TX
Manual Speed and Duplex Mode Configuration
To manually set the duplex mode of the PCI ports, first ensure that your
computer has the latest applicable patches installed as listed in the
Required and Optional Patches section of this release note.
To list the current speed and duplex mode of the PCI
10/100Base-TX/9000 ports, use the -x option (NOTE: lowercase x) of the
lanadmin command. Determine the speed and duplex mode of your hub
or switch before performing manual configuration as follows:
lanadmin -x
ppa
(HP-UX 11.0)
To manually set the duplex mode of the interface, install one of the
patches above and then use the -X option of lanadmin as follows:
lanadmin -X mode
ppa
(on HP-UX 11.0)
where:
mode can be any one of the following strings (and the fd or hd are
case-insensitive):
10fd =10 full-duplex
10hd =10 half-duplex
100fd =100 full-duplex
100hd =100 half-duplex
and
lanadmin -X auto_on
ppa
(turns autonegotiation on for HP-UX 11.0)
The
ppa
is the physical point of attachment on HP-UX 11.0. You can get
the
ppa
from the output of the lanscan command.
Example:
If the
ppa
of the 100Base-TX interface is 5, the command to set the card
to 10Mbits/s and full-duplex mode would be:
lanadmin -X 10fd 5
After issuing the lanadmin -X, you must wait at least 11 seconds before
attempting to use the specified network interface.
If you want the Duplex Mode setting to be effective in all subsequent
reboots, you must enter the information in the following file:
/etc/rc.config.d/hpbtlanconf
