Getting Started with HP-UX IPQoS

System Operation

Scenarios where you may want to do this include the following:

You do not want to reboot the system and:

you are installing the software for the first time

you have stopped HP-UX IPQoS (using the procedure that avoids a reboot) and you wish to restart HP-UX IPQOS either with the current software or with an updated version of the software that you have just installed.

To start HP-UX IPQoS without needing to reboot, perform the following steps:

CAUTION You must have experience manually configuring HP-UX networks to use this procedure.

Step

1.

Edit the /etc/rc.config.d/ipqos file. Set the parameter IPQOS=1.

Step

2.

Run the following command:

 

 

#/sbin/init.d/ipqos_dne start

Step

3.

Stop the current networking configuration using ifconfig to down and unplumb all

 

 

the IPv4 and IPv6 interfaces. First down any secondary interfaces, then down the

 

 

primary interfaces. Then unplumb the interfaces.

Step

4.

Restart networking using one or more of the following:

Run the following command:

#/sbin/init.d/net start

If using an IPv6-enable system, run the following command:

#/sbin/init.d/net-ipv6 start

Manually reconfigure any additional networking setup as needed.

Step 5. Run the following command:

#/sbin/init.d/ipqos start

Step 6. Examine the state of HP-UX IPQoS, by running the following command:

#ipqosadmin -state
