No, you cannot. But, if it is an OSA, you can define multiple device numbers on a single OSA. Then you pass a series of device numbers to the first level TCP/IP, and another set to the guest VM system. If your IOCP does not have "spare" device numbers for the OSA, you can always define a virtual CTC between the first and second level TCP/IP stacks; you need to enable PROXYARP on the first level TCP/IP when you want both TCP/IP stacks in the same subnet. We used such a setup in the past when our old OSA/2 didn't have enough addresses for our needs.
