Step C-1: Set Dual LAN Card Configuration

LAN configuration is not set to Linux for NEC Express5800/ft series preinstalled to the hard disk
drive of the NEC Express5800/ft series, or after Linux for NEC Express5800/ft series is reinstalled.
If you use a network, you need to set dual LAN card configuration.

mounted as standard on the PCI module.
The following is a description of setting 100Base built-in LAN card.

and commands on the description to "4".
