RE: TCP/IP routing

Traffic is routed via your TCP routes (option 2 from the CFGTCP menu).  If
you want the ftp process to use a specific card (i.e. your ethernet card),
you need to add a new route specifying the route destination, subnet mask,
next hop and preferred interface - for the preferred interface you put in
the IP address of the ethernet card.  All of this is assuming you have
defined the ethernet card as a valid interface.

If you need more information or specific examples, please let me know.

Subject: TCP/IP routing


Hello,

we currently have two NICs in our 820 - an ethernet card and token-ring. We
are migrating from T/R to ethernet 
and I would like to know how traffic is routed over these nics?

When I do a FTP to another AS400 in our WAN, I can see that this connection
runs over the T/R card (IP-address 
under NETSTAT). But I would want to run this over the ethernet card?

Also in NETSTAT, can I find out if this is an incoming or outgoing
connection?

Thanks for your help,

Oliver
