Prior
to loading the FDDI product onto your system, check that you have
met the following hardware and software prerequisites: Check that the /usr/bin, /usr/sbin
and /sbin directories are in your PATH using
the command: echo $PATH. The operating system has been upgraded to 10.30
software. To obtain this information, use
the uname -a
command. You have a fiber cable
terminated with a MIC connector to connect your FDDI adapter to
your concentrator. Series 800 HP-PB: The system
backplane contains available empty HP-PB slots for the FDDI adapter.
(The HP-PB FDDI card is a double-high card; therefore, it needs
two slots, above and below, rather than side-by-side. See theHP-PB FDDI Adapter Installation Guide for more details.) You have an IP address, subnet mask (optional),
and host name alias for your new FDDI adapter. You have super-user status.  |  |  |  |  | NOTE: Prior to the installation of
HP FDDI/9000, FDDI fiber optic cabling must be installed by a non-HP
third party cabling vendor, and all networking appliances must be
correctly attached and configured including concentrators. |  |  |  |  |
