You may be getting link, however, it may be at the wrong speed. Remember, the SC is 10/100 - perhaps someone has made the switch port auto-negotiate or 1000FULL - Ask your network guy if the port is linked at 100MB. Hopefully your SC is set up with a static IP? If not it could be that it isn't getting the DHCP address you think it should be getting. Unfortunatly w/o the specifics these are the only suggestions I have with the information you have provided.

I wanted to know whether there is a setting in AIX to allow console login eventhough loginretries have already reached. What I mean is that loginretries applies to ssh/telnet connection but I can still login in console even after loginretries have been reached.
Thanks. (2 Replies)
