RE: BRMS CPF5140 Error

Hi Jeff

Yes it does have its own stack.

You'd really want to make sure those other PC's had a unique Ops Console
device created and assigned to them; don't try and re-use the same device
name among PC's.

You'd also want to rehearse swapping this stuff over.

I like to create multiple users and multiple Ops console devices when I'm
setting this up - including a couple of "spares" for both as a back door.

You should also check out the security settings in DST as there are some
options there that make life easier, notably the restriction on re-setting
passwords from a device other than the console and changing passwords when
they are expired. These options changed each release after V5R2. Obviously
you need to consider them in light of your site security policy.

Regards
Evan Harris

Aaah.

So ops con has it's own TCP/IP stack?

Theoretically, could my PC have a 2nd NIC, a cat5 direct to a port on the
520 (like T5), and be the console; then, if my PC takes a powder, any other
PC could take over the console so long as the ops con portion of i Access is
loaded, even if that PC has only 1 NIC?
