Hardware and Software Installation Procedure

For Further Information

An alternative way to temporarily conﬁgure jumbo frame size is to enter:

lanadmin -M

mtu_size PPA_number

Using lanadmin is temporary because it will not preserve your settings across reboots.

The

PPA_number

is the one we obtained from the output of lanscan. For using Jumbo Frames with the igelan

Gigabit Ethernet driver on HP-UX 11i v 1.0, set the mtu_size to 9000 (bytes). For using Jumbo Frames with

the igelan driver on 11i v 2.0 of September 2004 (or later), set the mtu_size to a number in the range of 1501

to 9000 bytes.

For Further Information

For further information on the Gigabit Ethernet and Fibre Channel as implemented in this card, please refer

to http://docs.hp.com and then look under Networking and Communications. This card’s information is

primarily located under the subsection called “Combination Cards.”

The AB465A is a 2-port FC and 2-port GigE version of HP’s A9784A combination card; and they both use the

same drivers and ﬁrmware -- the drivers are fcd for Fibre Channel and igelan for Gigabit Ethernet. To check

for updated information, either look at the information for the A9784A or check the Fibre Channel Support

Matrix and the Ethernet Support Matrix on http://docs.hp.com

Maintenance and troubleshooting information about the igelan Gigabit Ethernet driver used in this

product is located in the Ethernet Support Guide. There is maintenance and troubleshooting information

about the fcd Fibre Channel driver used in this product in the HP Fibre Channel Mass Storage Adapters

Support Guide. There is also a Support Matrix for Gigabit Ethernet and a separate one for Fibre Channel. The

fcd driver is the same one used in the A6826A Fibre Channel product and has the same features as the driver

described in that product’s documentation.
