David's diagrams fit with our experience with one exception. We had
also set up a connection directly from each of the guests to a Vswitch
to the "normal" network.
And I'll add one more comment to his "you NEED" list. Since VM and
Linux are typically done by a different person/group than z/OS, you NEED
to have the z/OS people involved also.

As David Boyes said, it should be simple. And it is if all is setup
right...
In a nutshell:
- turn on IP forwarding in the router
- add a route on z/OS to the guest LAN subnet via the
router IP on the hipersocket
- add a route on the Linux guests to the hipersocket subnet
via the router IP on the guest LAN
A discussion white paper with diagrams showing a simplified example of
this configuration is now available at http://sinenomine.net/node/546.
Note that it is intended to be a basis for a discussion with your
network engineering people -- it's *not* a cookbook for implementation.
To successfully implement this, you NEED to have your network people
involved, and this will help both you AND them understand what's
happening.
You're free to download and distribute the document and diagrams
