WRKLANADPT (Work with LAN Adapters)

WRKLANADPT Command syntax diagram

 

Purpose

The Work with Local Area Network Adapters (WRKLANADPT) command shows a list of the active and inactive local area network (LAN) adapters on the local network.

 

Notes

1. To determine whether network adapters are active or inactive, the LAN manager performs a query of all adapters that are entered in the network adapter file. Adapters that respond to the query are identified as being active on the network; those that do not respond are identified as being inactive on the network.
2. Adapters that are not currently entered in the network adapter file are automatically added, and a default adapter name is assigned. The default adapter name consists of the character D, followed by the last nine digits of the adapter address.
