Configures the Network Terminal Accelerator (NTX) MAC-layer addresses.
ntx_macaddr [-d Device ] [ -i Address ] [ -c ] [-m Address...]
The ntx_macaddr command configures the adapter MAC-layer addresses. By default, this command displays the current individual and multicast addresses of the adapter specified by the /dev/rhp0 file. The addresses are sent to standard output. Addresses appear in hexadecimal notation (for example, 80:00:40:1a:22:f3 ).
By default, the adapter is configured with a single individual MAC address. This address uniquely identifies the adapter. The address is factory-supplied and the ntx_macaddr command allows you to change it using the -i flag.
This command returns the following exit values:
0 | Successful completion. |
>0 | An error occurred. |
Access Control: You must have root authority to run this command.
