Displaying and Setting the LAN Station Address
It is sometimes necessary to supply the LAN station address of the workstation to other
users. For example, if the workstation is to become a member of a cluster, the cluster
administrator needs to know your LAN station address in order to add your workstation to
the cluster. Note that the LAN station address can be determined using the Boot Console
Handler Information Menu.
A LAN station address for the workstation is the label that uniquely identifies the LAN
connection for the workstation at the link level (the hardware level).
To display the workstation’s LAN station address, type the following at the prompt and
press
Enter:
Information Menu: Enter command> lanaddress
The LAN station address is displayed as a twelve-digit number in hexadecimal notation,
similar to the following:
LAN Station Address: 001083-000429
The address is for the workstation’s built-in LAN interface.
