Thanks Alan. I understand. I will be able to figure out what I need from here!

As always, when you're trying to decide what must be configured, and how, start with a picture. HiperSockets are LAN segments. Define them to z/OS and Linux as such, just as you would if it were an ethernet. If VM TCP/IP is not in your picture - in the data path, then it need not be updated. It is impossible to give you an absolute answer since I don't know what your network looks like. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
