Mark, we have one using the "other" port. PORTNAME is not what you want. You want to use the .P0x stuff. something like DEFINE VSWITCH VSW1 RDEV F150.P01 F170 The F170 in this case becomes F170.P00

Next week I will be receiving a z10 to replace a z9. For the sake of simplicity lets say I had 1 OSA2. That would be 2 ports or 2 CHPIDs. On those CHPIDs I have 3 addresses each CHPID 1 100-103 - CHPID 2 200-203. Each CHPID is attached to a different network. So I know in TCPIP if I want to go to one network I use a specific set of addresses and if I want to go to the other network I use the other set of address. Now the z10 is coming. The OSA2 has been replaced with an OSA3 1000-baseT -2P. So now I have 1 CHPID with 2 ports. IF, and it's a big IF, I understand how it works, I can still create the 2 address ranges on the 1 CHPID. Port 0 goes to one network, Port 1 goes to another network. Then I use the PORTNAME parameter on the Device Statement to determine which network I want to get to. What I'm having a hard time with is now is how do I associate which port number is which PORTNAME. -- Mark Pace Mainline Information Systems 1700 Summit Lake Drive Tallahassee, FL. 32317
