Your system may not be able to communicate with other systems
(for example, PCs, workstations, servers, etc.) until you configure system-to-system
connections. You can use SAM to do this automatically by completing
the following steps: At the HP-UX prompt, type: sam Double-click on the Networking and Communications item of the SAM main window. Double-click on Hosts. Double-click on the Local Hosts File item. SAM displays the remote system names and IP addresses that
are already configured. Choose Add from the "Actions" menu to open
the Add Host to File window. Use the SAM on-line help system for information about adding remote
host connections. Enter the Internet Address for the remote system. Upon exiting the Internet Address field, SAM checks to make
sure you have entered a valid IP address. SAM also determines if
a gateway is required for the connection (see step 4f). Enter the remote host name. Upon exiting the Remote Host Name field, SAM checks to make sure that connectivity
has not already been configured for this system. If it has, SAM
displays an error message. Optionally, choose Configure Aliases to open the Configure Aliases window for remote
systems. Add, modify, or remove alias names for the remote
system. Activate the OK button to perform
the task and return to the Add Host to File window. Proceed to step 5 if a gateway is not required for
this remote connection. SAM displays fields for entering gateway information if a
gateway is required for this remote system connection. Use the SAM on-line
help system for information about gateways.
Activate the OK button to enable
your system to communicate with this system and return to the Internet
Addresses window. SAM updates the object list to include the remote system you configured. | | | |  | NOTE: You can modify or remove remote systems and modify default
gateways by highlighting the Remote System Name from the object
list and choosing Modify, Remove, or Modify Default Gateway from
the "Actions" menu. | | | | |
Choose Exit from the "File" menu. Then Exit SAM from the "File" menu
again. Verify remote system configuration. View the list of remote systems you can communicate with using
a symbolic name by typing the following command at the HP-UX prompt
(note that this file may be large): View the configured destinations reached through
gateways and the gateways used to reach those destinations by typing
the following command at the HP-UX prompt:
To verify that you can communicate with a remote system using
the LAN/9000 product, continue to “Step 3: Verifying the Installation”. |
