Tom, I'm still on V5R1, so you'll need to double-check this. RMVTCPTBL TBL(*IPFTR) will remove all IP filter rules. Do you have a terminal that does NOT connect via TCP/IP? If not, activating packet filters may lock yourself completely out of the system (ask me how I know!). What I wound up doing was creating a CL program and command that would submit a batch job to perform the RMVTCPTBL command and schedule it for a time specified in a command parameter. Then when I was ready to try out some changes to the packet filters, I would run the command and pick a time several minutes into the future. Once that "deadman switch" job was scheduled, I could then activate my packet rules. If all went well, I would just delete the scheduled job. If I goofed and locked myself out, the job would run and remove IP filters and I could get back in. Good luck!
