Configure Second NIC on HP UX?
Hello,
I need to configure a second NIC on my HP UX, B.11.31 U ia64 ...if it is helpful.
I see a good thread to start on:
Configuring NIC
Configuring NIC
I have started reading the man pages listed. Without having to know every last detail is there a good how to guide I can follow? Also is this multicast-ing?
My end goal is normal network traffic is fine on this system, however I have gone to a tapeless backup and want every bit of speed performance I can get out of the network. TIA.

I wanted to configure a second NIC card on a different IP on my Sun E450 server.
Currently, I have hme0.

Hi all,
i tried to set up two network cards in Linux. During installation, it can detect both; eth0 and eth1. In the GUI, i can click on eth0 and type in the IP add and netmask. In the lower half of the window, I can also enter the gateway,hostname,and DNS servers
When i click on eth1, i can... (5 Replies)

Hi , I came across a SUN server whereby it was installed with additional ethernet card. By right in any configuration, you would probably see the onboard ports Net0,Net1 and so on should correspond to e1000g0,e1000g1...
But instead the ext PCI takes precedence in the order and the Net0 becomes... (3 Replies)

I want tune my NIC's rps, rfs and xps value.
In my system I have two NIC (eth0, eth1) and I have a bond0 ( eth0, eth1).
Here is the question? Which device should I modify ?

Hello Admins,
My ask is how can I add two different subnet IPs to same box with two different gateways?
The issue is I can connect to the box when I am on ethernet LAN, but I am not able to connect to the same IP when I am on wifi. The server is RHEL 7 VM on vmware.

eshconfig
ESHCONFIG(8) BSD System Manager's Manual ESHCONFIG(8)
NAME
eshconfig -- configure Essential Communications' HIPPI network interface
SYNOPSIS
eshconfig [-estx] [-b bytes] [-c bytes] [-d filename] [-i usecs] [-m bytes] [-r bytes] [-u filename] [-w bytes] [interface]
DESCRIPTION
eshconfig is used to configure device-specific parameters and download new firmware to the Essential Communications RoadRunner-based HIPPI
network interface. The interface is very sensitive to the DMA performance characteristics of the host, and so requires careful tuning to
achieve reasonable performance. In addition, firmware is likely to change frequently, which necessitates a reasonably easy way to update
that firmware.
Available operands for eshconfig:
-b bytes
Adjust the burst size for read (by NIC of host memory) DMA.
-c bytes
Adjust the burst size for write (by NIC of host memory) DMA.
-d filename
Filename for file to download into NIC firmware. This must be a file in the standard Essential format, with :04 preceding every
line, and a tag line at the end indicating the characteristics of the firmware file.
-e Write data to EEPROM. Normally, setting tuning parameters will only persist until the system is rebooted. Setting this parameter
ensures that the changes will be written to EEPROM.
-i usecs
Interrupt delay in microseconds.
-m bytes
Minimum number of bytes to DMA in one direction (read or write) before allowing a DMA in the other direction. Tuning this prevents
one direction from dominating the flow of bytes, and artificially throttling the NIC.
-r bytes
Bytes before DMA starts for read (from host to NIC). This controls how soon the DMA is triggered; until this many bytes are
requested, the DMA will not begin.
-s Show statistics for the HIPPI NIC. Repeat the option to suppress non-zero statistics.
-t Show current tuning parameters on the host.
-u filename
Name of file to which the NIC firmware should be uploaded. Not currently supported.
-w bytes
Number of bytes required before write (from NIC to host) DMA is started. Until this many bytes are ready to be written, the DMA will
not start.
-x Reset the NIC. This is necessary for the HIPPI-FP support, as ifconfig(8) will no longer physically reset the NIC when the inter-
faces goes up and down.
Only the super-user may modify the configuration of a network interface.
DIAGNOSTICS
Messages indicating the specified interface does not exist or the user is not privileged and tried to alter an interface's configuration.

The eshconfig command first appeared in NetBSD 1.4.
