A picture! Yea!!! No subnet masks! Boooo! (Though I infer that 10.0.x.x means mask 255.255.0.0.) > I have an OSA and an IP address on the LAN > available to me, 10.0.0.7 .

If you just have a host route, then respones to traffic coming from the 2216 may go out through the OSA. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
