lanscan(1M)lanscan(1M)NAMElanscan - display LAN device configuration and status
SYNOPSIS
Remarks
The and commands are deprecated. See for more information.
DESCRIPTION
displays the following information about each LAN device that has soft‐
ware support on the system:
· Hardware Path.
· Active Station Address (also known as Physical Address).
· Card Instance Number
· Hardware State.
· Network Interface "NamePPA". The Network Interface "Name"
and the "PPA" (Physical Point of Attachment) number are con‐
catenated together. A single hardware device may have multi‐
ple "NamePPA" identifiers, which indicates multiple encapsu‐
lation methods may be supported on the device. For Ether‐
net/IEEE 802.3 links, the "Name" is used to designate Ether‐
net encapsulation, and for IEEE 802.3 encapsulation. For
other links (FDDI, Token Ring), only the encapsulation desig‐
nation is used.
· Network Management ID.
· MAC Type.
· HP DLPI Supported. Indicates whether or not the lan device
driver will work with HP's Common Data Link Provider Inter‐
face.
· DLPI Major Number.
· Extended Station Address for those interfaces which require
more than 48 bits. This is displayed only when the option is
selected.
· Encapsulation Methods that the Network Interface supports.
This is displayed only when the option is selected.
Options
recognizes the following command-line options:
Display station addresses only. No headings.
Display interface names only. No headings.
Display information about PPAs that are acquired by APA.
No headings.
Display MAC types only. No headings.
Display Network Managements IDs only. No headings.
Display PPA numbers only. No headings.
Same as except link aggregate PPA's will be followed by a list
of LAN interface PPA's that are configured in the corre‐
sponding link aggregate. No headings.
Verbose output. Two lines per interface. Includes displaying
of extended
station address and supported encapsulation methods.
WARNINGS
does not display information about LAN devices that do not have soft‐
ware support such as LAN interface cards that fail to bind properly at
boot-up time.
Obsolescence
The and commands are deprecated. These commands will be removed in a
future HP-UX release. HP recommends the use of replacement command
nwmgr(1M) to perform all network interface-related tasks.
