Brian: It sounds as though you got HiperSockets *Guest LAN* working. Hipersockets (real or virtual) currently does not support IEEE 802.1q VLAN, and in z/VM 4.2, it does not support multicast (z/VM 4.3 adds this, as well as QDIO type Guest LANs, which support broadcast). That's what the Linux messages are reporting.
