Tracert gets all the way to my ISP's switch, so it should be getting to the firewall.

Networking isn't really my forte either, at least not on that level.
If you can't even connect by IP number then it's not a dns issue. If you
can, suspect DNS.
How far does traceroute get from the outside? Various OS's spell it
differently.
Might it be a NAT or Network Address Translation issue?

Sent by: midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx



First off, I'm a one-man IT shop, and networking is NOT my specialty, AND
my normal network consultant is busy dealing with another customer's
emergency already - so I'm grasping at straws here:

My ISP just assigned me a block of new IP addresses with our latest
upgrade, so I had to assign a new public IP for the System i.

Made the changes to the firewall, and thought all was well; all I had to
do was change the public IPs from old to new - but now I'm unable to
connect to the System i remotely.

You would think this would be a firewall issue, but I've poured over this
Sonicwall and all the routing looks correct to me. I've even confirmed
with the ISP that the IP is routed correctly on their end.

Is there any TCP setting on the i that would be related to a public IP
address? I've gone through the CFGTCP options and all I see is the local
IP and domain referenced. (I'm able to connect to my desktop remotely via
TeamViewer)

Thanks
