Checking the Network Software Configuration

When the station comes up, verify the station's software configuration. Log into the station as root.

Issue the chkconfig(1M) command to check that your station's standard networking software is correctly configured:

/etc/chkconfig

Note: Your output will vary from the output above depending upon installed software and configuration flag settings. If you are familiar with the network-related daemons, you can customize your configuration flags to suit your network needs. If you are not familiar with the network-related daemons, set your network-related flags as shown above. In particular, make sure that the network variable is configured on.
