That is the same problem here. I hope that there will be a fix(s) before I get to the point of dissolving my supernet.
Thanks Tom Duerbusch THD Consulting >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 12/6/2006 12:38 PM >>> When I was installing and testing on z/VM 5.2 in a guest I used supernetting of class C addresses in the z/VM 5.2 guest's TCPIP stack. There was a problem getting TCPIP to accept the supernetting syntax and I openned a PMR. APAR PK18025 (PTF UK11188) was created to resolve the problem. Without this APAR I got an error message on the TCPIP console: DTCPRS158E Line 75: Subnet Mask specified on GATEWAY statement is not valid or DTCPAR123I Line 75: Unknown link name in GATEWAY cmd depending on which supernetting syntax I was using. I don't use supernetting anymore, but once the syntax was accepted it did work for me.
