lowing important information and note it in the appropriate subsection for
future use:
• LANIC ID
• SCSI device ID
• Device file used for each SCSI device
• Internet Protocol (IP) address
• Subnetwork mask
NOTICE: For help with these, refer to Using your HP Workstation.

Locate the contents label that comes with the workstation shipping carton.
Find the LANIC ID listed there and write it down in the space provided:
LANIC ID ____________________________________________
You can also get your LANIC ID by using the lanscan command in a termi-
nal window. To do this, follow these steps:
1 Turn your workstation and monitor on, if you have not already done so. Figure 1
of this chapter shows the location of the power switch on the workstation. See the
documentation that came with your monitor for the location of the monitor power
switch.
2 Move the mouse cursor to the Terminal Control on the Front Panel of your Work-
space and click the left mouse button.
