How to display the primary network interface...

How do I find out what the primary network interface is on an AIX system..

Found commands to display information on the various interfaces but nothing that guides me to how to tell which one is the primary network interface.

Thanks,
~D

Otherwise, look through the menus of 'smitty commodev'
