Installing the LAN over USB Linux device driver
Versions of Linux since RHEL5 Update 3 and SLES10 Service Pack 2 support the LAN over USB interface by
default. This interface is detected and displayed during the installation of these operating systems.
See the list in “Accessing the IMM2 using the LAN over USB interface” on page 52 for information about
the IP addresses.
Note: Older Linux distributions might not detect the LAN over USB interface and might require manual
configuration. For information about configuring LAN over USB on specific Linux distributions, see
http://www.ibm.com/support/entry/ portal/docdisplay?lndocid=MIGR-5083207.
The IMM2 LAN over USB interface requires that the
usbnet
and
cdc_ether
device drivers be installed. If the
drivers have not been installed, use modprobe to install them. When these device drivers are installed, the
IMM2 USB network interface is shown as a network device in the operating system. To discover the name
that the operating system has assigned to the IMM2 USB network interface, type
dmesg | grep -i cdc ether
