Running pkgadd

Steps 3 to 6

3. Pkgadd asks you to provide configuration information for each adapter in your machine. Pkgadd will display the following message for each adapter:

Processing configuration for adapter 



You may select a ring speed for the adapter. There are three choices:
0 means the adapter will select the ring speed, 4 means the adapter
will operate at 4MBit/s, 16 means the adapter will operate at 16MBit/s.


Please choose ring speed (0/4/16) [0] ?

4. Specify a ring speed to use. If you want the default press [ENTER]. If not type a value and press [ENTER].

5. Next pkgadd asks if you want to bind a TCP/IP stack to the adapter. If you do, pkgadd asks you to provide an IP address and a host name. When you are asked the question:

Would you like to attach a TCP/IP stack to this adapter (y/n) [y] ?

press [ENTER] if you do want a TCP/IP stack or "n" and then [ENTER] if you do not want a TCP/IP stack.

6. If you have chosen to have a TCP/IP stack pkgadd asks for an IP address and a host name for the adapter:

An IP address is needed for this adapter. This must be of the form
a.b.c.d where a-d are decimal numbers in the range 0 to 254.

The IP addresses already in use are:


IP address1

IP address2


Please enter an IP address [] ?129.144.25.93


A host name is needed for this adapter. This must be different 
from the host names used for any other adapters in this node.
The host names already in use are:


host1

host2


Please enter a host name [host1] ?host3
