Re: Remote Ethernet

The 400 would need communications to a router, most people use LAN 
nowadays.  That router would need communications to the router at the 
other site.  That can be done via any number of methods:  T1, wireless 
antenna's, etc.  Then the remote router would need the ethernet connection 
to the remote equipment.  Now, if you use the internet to connect these 
two routers you are probably going to want to set up VPN on them.  It you 
want to support multiple locations you'll probably end up with a firewall 
with every site that has a router.

You'll need TCP/IP configured on the 400.  You'll need an ethernet card.

That's it in a nutshell.

Remote Ethernet






What do I need to be able to have a remote Ethernet Connection back to
the AS/400. It would be needed to support a second (no local facility).
Remote 5250 isn't enough.
