I have frequently assigned multiple hosts with separate IP addresses in the same subnet. In a partitioned Domino server (a Domino installation with multiple servers on the same hardware platform) it is standard practice to assign a unique IP address to each server. Because each server would be listening (and talking to) specific addresses/ports, then the source address within Domino traffic would be set to the assigned address. If you were to ping an address on that subnet from the AS/400, which IP address would be used as the source of the ping request? I think that is Phil's question. IP will perform outbound load balancing using the DUPRTEPTY parameter on your routing entries, this would allow a particular route to be preferentially used, but would have no effect on traffic to local clients. I think the short answer is no, there is no way to specifically control which address would be used as a source for outbound local traffic when a request is initiated on the AS/400 and multiple IP addresses are in the same subnet. Whether the OS will follow a predictable pattern in this case, I don't know. Do I understand the question Phil?
