Overview

This chapter contains the following sections:

	NOTE: If you have a system with LAN/9000 preinstalled on it, you may skip this chapter and go directly to chapter 2. Execute the command lanscan to determine if the LAN/9000 software and hardware have been pre-installed. If, in addition, you have a preconfigured system, you may also skip chapter 2, "Configuring LAN Using SAM."

If you are unfamiliar with HP LAN products or networking concepts, HP recommends that you read the Networking Overview, and Chapter 6 “ Network Addressing” and Chapter 7 “LAN Device and Interface Terminology” of this manual before beginning LAN/9000 installation.
