This is because the interface’s hardware state is down. The s700 machines need to be connected to a network before they can be configured with ifconfig. Add the s700 machine to the network and then reset the interface with running /usr/bin/landiag (LAN->RESET). If no errors are reported then you should be able to ifconfig that interface.
