HP-UX equivalent to ifconfig

HP has ifconfig (in fact, the man page for ifconfig says the command was developed by HP and Berkeley). Have you done a man on ifconfig?

Thanks, bi. I must have been accidentally typing in the wrong command because I tried it a few times. Maybe I typed ipconfig instead of ifconfig...who knows!!

Thanks,

John

You could also try the man pages for lanscan and lanadmin

If u do lanscan then it will show u the no. of lancards attach to the system and if ifconfig <devicename> then ipaddress, netmask and network address will be shown

Regards

You can also cat /etc/rc.config.d/netconf - all the config information is in there for your active devices.

lanscan will show the devices, but not all may be set up (so doing an ifconfig on an unused interface will give you an error):
