- 3. Check the setup_state with aarstat(1M).
- 4. Verify the interface_state in aarstat(1M).
- 5. Make sure Classical IP is configured correctly.
- 6. If the system is a Classical IP client, verify the server connection.
- 7. If the server_state is no-connection or connecting.
- 8. Verify that addresses are resolved and connections are made with the ping(1M) command.
- To Diagnose LAN Emulation Configuration Problems
- 1. Check all of the generic configuration points.
- 2. Verify the output of ifconfig(1M).
