Installing the LAN over USB Linux device driver
Versions of Linux since RHEL5 Update 3 and SLES10 Service Pack 2 support the LAN over USB interface by
default. This interface is detected and displayed during the installation of these operating systems.
See Table 3 "LAN over USB addresses" on page 53 for information about the IP addresses.
Note: Older Linux distributions might not detect the LAN over USB interface, and might require manual
configuration. For information about configuring LAN over USB on specific Linux distributions, see the IBM
white paper Transitioning to UEFI and IMM at "" on page .
The IMM LAN over USB interface requires that the usbnet and cdc_ether device drivers be loaded. If the
drivers have not been installed, use m m o o d d p p r r o o b b e e to install them. When these drivers are installed, the IMM
USB network interface is shown as a network device in the operating system. To discover the name that the
operating system has assigned to the IMM USB network interface, type:
dmesg | grep -i cdc ether
.
