Configuring LAN connections

The Network Configuration Manager interface

Use the Network Configuration Manager to configure network hardware, configure network protocols, and remove a network configuration.

Start the Network Configuration Manager in either of these ways:

Start the SCOadmin launcher from your desktop or from the command line, open the Networking folder, then select the Network Configuration Manager.
Enter scoadmin network configuration on the command line (or abbreviate to scoadmin network).
Enter netcfg on any UNIX command line.

NOTE: You must have root or system owner privileges to use the Network Configuration Manager; see ``System security''.

The Network Configuration Manager starts by default displaying LAN configuration information. Use the View menu to change between LAN and WAN views.

For more information on using SCOadmin managers, see ``Administering your system with SCOadmin''.
