Run set_parms addl_netwrk and configure the settings for
your site.
As root, run swlist and make sure that the Gigabit Ethernet
driver is installed, for example:
A4929A 1000Base-SX PCI Gigabit Ethernet
Obtain the latest driver patch from HP Support.
Verify that your /etc/hosts and /etc/rc.config.d/netconf
files have hostnames that are matched to the IP addresses in the
netconf file. Each Workstation has two hostnames and IP
addresses. One set is for the private Gigabit LAN (sv*,
192.168.1.*) and the other is for site wide 10/100 LAN. See the File
Configuration section of the sv6 Installation/Users Guide for
details.
