3.2.3 Network Controllers
Before using a network controller you must do the following:
1. Make sure the transceiver cable connected to the DELQA module in the
system is properly connected to the network in one of the following
ways:
•
To an H4000 transceiver located on a traditional Ethernet
•
To a DELNI, which can be connected to a larger Ethernet or which
can serve to connect up to eight systems in a local area network
•
To a DESTA, an adapter that enables you to connect to a ThinWire
Ethernet
2. Have the DECnet application installed on your system.
3. Register your node with the network manager so that your node is
recognized by other systems in the network.
Some software products, for example, Local Area VAXcluster (LAVc) software,
use the Ethernet hardware address of other systems to operate properly.
To find the hardware address of your Ethernet device, use the command
SHOW ETHER from console I/O mode.
The hardware address of your
Ethernet device displays on the terminal, as shown in the following example:
»> SHOW ETHER
08--00--2B--03--50--5C
Refer to your system software manuals and DECnet manuals for other
requirements and further instructions on using a network connection.
