Mary, Below is the PROFILE TCPIP that I have specified for my 2nd level vm DEVICE d...@f904 OSD F904 NONROUTER LINK OSAF904 QDIOETHERNET d...@f904 MTU 1400 IP ; (End DEVICE and LINK statements) ; --------------------------------------------------------------------- ; --------------------------------------------------------------------- HOME 10.176.129.18 255.255.255.192 OSAF904 ; (End HOME Address information) ; --------------------------------------------------------------------- GATEWAY |...+....1....+....2....+....3....+....4....+....5....+....6....+....7. ; Network Subnet First Link MTU ; Address Mask Hop Name Size ; ------------- --------------- --------------- ---------------- ----- DEFAULTNET 10.176.129.1 OSAF904 1400 ; (End GATEWAY Static Routing information) ; --------------------------------------------------------------------- My f1st level uses address range F900-F902 and a different HOME address. The 2nd level uses F904-F906 My 2nd level SYSTEM DTCPARMS are as follows : :nick.TCPIP :type.server :class.stack :attach.F904-F906 I used an used OSA range and obtained an IP from my network people.

I connect my 2nd level VM to the first level vswitch. 2nd level VM just thinks it's an OSA.

Just wondering how others set up a 2nd level z/VM and get networking going without requiring any more OSA's or drastic changes on 1st level... I want to test out TCPIP and VSWITCH's, but not sure how to get started. Pointers to any redbooks would be welcome as well -- I can't seem to find this topic addressed...
