NAME
       lanscan - display LAN device configuration and status

SYNOPSIS
   Remarks
       The and commands are deprecated.	 See for more information.

DESCRIPTION
       displays the following information about each LAN device that has soft‐
       ware support on the system:

	      ·	 Hardware Path.

	      ·	 Active Station Address (also known as Physical Address).

	      ·	 Card Instance Number

	      ·	 Hardware State.

	      ·	 Network Interface "NamePPA".	The Network  Interface	"Name"
		 and  the "PPA" (Physical Point of Attachment) number are con‐
		 catenated together.  A single hardware device may have multi‐
		 ple  "NamePPA" identifiers, which indicates multiple encapsu‐
		 lation methods may be supported on the	 device.   For	Ether‐
		 net/IEEE  802.3 links, the "Name" is used to designate Ether‐
		 net encapsulation, and for  IEEE  802.3  encapsulation.   For
		 other links (FDDI, Token Ring), only the encapsulation desig‐
		 nation is used.

	      ·	 Network Management ID.

	      ·	 MAC Type.

	      ·	 HP DLPI Supported.  Indicates whether or not the  lan	device
		 driver	 will  work with HP's Common Data Link Provider Inter‐
		 face.

	      ·	 DLPI Major Number.

	      ·	 Extended Station Address for those interfaces	which  require
		 more than 48 bits.  This is displayed only when the option is
		 selected.

	      ·	 Encapsulation Methods that the	 Network  Interface  supports.
		 This is displayed only when the option is selected.

   Options
       recognizes the following command-line options:

	      Display station addresses only.  No headings.

	      Display interface names only.  No headings.

	      Display information about PPAs that are acquired by APA.
		      No headings.

	      Display MAC types only.  No headings.

	      Display Network Managements IDs only.  No headings.

	      Display PPA numbers only.	 No headings.

	      Same as except  link  aggregate PPA's will be followed by a list
		      of LAN interface PPA's that are configured in the corre‐
		      sponding link aggregate. No headings.

	      Verbose  output.	 Two lines per interface.  Includes displaying
	      of extended
		      station address and supported encapsulation methods.

WARNINGS
       does not display information about LAN devices that do not  have	 soft‐
       ware  support such as LAN interface cards that fail to bind properly at
       boot-up time.

   Obsolescence
       The and commands are deprecated.	 These commands will be removed	 in  a
       future  HP-UX  release.	 HP  recommends the use of replacement command
       nwmgr(1M) to perform all network interface-related tasks.
