Installing the driver for HP-UX 10.20 or later:
Note: The following examples assume that you mounted the CD-ROM in
the ‘/cdrom’directory. Otherwise,make adjustments to the following
commands as necessary:
1. Run the standard HPUX swinstall program to install the system
software, rebuild the kernel and reboot. Enter:
# swinstall -s /cdrom/HPUX -x software_view=products
[ENTER] (This command should be on one line.)
2. Following standard swinstall practices, install the software product
‘MQFE_1020’.
3. The final stage of the swinstall process will reboot your system with
a new kernel that contains the ‘mfl’ driver. The new network interface
names are ‘mfl’. After the computer has rebooted, login again as a
root user and verify that the new interface is present by using the
‘ifconfig’command. Enter this command:
# ifconfig mfl0 [ENTER]
Which will return:
