Re: Configure NIC port

if you have access to SST you can check there to see the LAN console configuration.

just as an aside, I submitted a DCR years ago for a CL command/API that would allow to see the TCP/IP config from SST. a few released ago IBM provided DSPSSTUSR that gave us the visibility to see service tools users.
kind of a shame we have not got the same thing for the tcp configuration(lan console and network image catalog)

Two of the Ethernet Ports aren't showing any config attached, even though I know one is the console port. I'll need to check the NIC itself to see which port is the console.

I usually start with:
WRKHDWRSC *CMN

find the card and you will see the resource names assigned to the ports.

CRTLINETH for the port without a configuration attached to it. If it is plugged into a network device(switch,router) when you vary it on its status should show VARIED ON

as an aside, assuming the console port is LAN CONSOLE, I have created a line description that documents its use as console with ONLINE(*NO).
