Add PCI ethernet card?
Hi everyone, I recently inherited an IBM RS/6000 43P 150, and it appears that the on board ethernet is dead. Can I put in a PCI ethernet card and use that as the default ethernet connection (as opposed to the one on the motherboard)? If so, what type of card can I use and how does one configure this in SMIT? Sorry for such a dumb question but this is pretty new to me... Thanks for the help. Jeff

I am trying to find PCI Ethernet cards that are compatible with the IBM RISC 6000 - B50 Power PC. None of the regular NIC's seem to have AIX drivers. Does anyone know of AIX drivers for standard PCI Ethernet NIC's or a non IBM NIC that works with the Model B50 at 10/100 MB ? (0 Replies)

NAME
arpsnmp - keep track of ethernet/ip address pairings
SYNOPSIS
arpsnmp [ -d ] [ -f datafile ] file [ ... ]
DESCRIPTION
Arpsnmp keeps track for ethernet/ip address pairings. It syslogs activity and reports certain changes via email. Arpsnmp reads information
from a file (usually generated by snmpwalk(1)).
The -d flag is used enable debugging. This also inhibits mailing the reports. Instead, they are sent to stderr.
The -f flag is used to set the ethernet/ip address database filename. The default is arp.dat.
Note that an empty arp.dat file must be created before the first time you run arpsnmp.
REPORT MESSAGES
(See the arpwatch(8) man page for details on the report messages generated by arpsnmp(8).)
FILES
/usr/operator/arpwatch - default directory
arp.dat - ethernet/ip address database
ethercodes.dat - vendor ethernet block list
