Re: Connecting 9402-200 to Linksys router

James -

I didn't see anybody else mention it, and its probably noted in the Fastpath
setup documentation, but if you want to access the internet FROM the AS/400,
I believe you'll need to set up a default route (CFGTCP, then select opt 2
"Work with TCP/IP Routes")
and setup an entry that looks like this:


                              Work with TCP/IP Routes
                                                                  System:
xxxxxxxx
  Type options, press Enter.
    5=Display

            Route                     Subnet               Next
Preferred
  Opt   Destination              Mask                 Hop
Interface

         *DFTROUTE         *NONE         xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx      *NONE

where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the address of your Linksys router internally on
the network.

I posted a message a couple of months ago regarding my attempt to connect my
9402-200 running V3R2 to my home network through my Linksys DSL router/hub
(BEFSR41).  If you've done this successfully and wouldn't mind a question or
two, I'd appreciate it if you'd contact me offline.

I'm not trying to use the 400 as a web server or anything fancy - I just
want to be able to run emulation and file transfer from my 2 pc's to the
400.

I've got a copy of IBM's TCP/IP Fastpath Setup manual and I'm hung on the
step where I have to give the AS/400 and address.  What do I use?  I'm not
familiar with TCP addressing schemes.

TIA.
