RE: V3R2 TCIP/IP question

[Chris Bipes <chris.bipes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Your right,  I missed that you only want to change the subnet.  We use DNS
to find our AS400's and changed the IP addresses by adding the new ones.
When no-one was using the old IPs, we ended them and deleted them.  To
change the subnet you will have to end the interface, change it then restart
it.  Not the whole IP stack.  If you only have one IP address, add a second
one before stopping the first one even if no one uses it.

BTW you can run multiple IP address over one interface.  There is no need to
change the interface, that is if you did not configure the IP within the
Ethernet card interface.

Thanks for the reply - again - I only have one interface- wanting to change
the mask only on the one interface I'm running on - will doing so make the
box apply the update automatically?  I find it hard to believe it could do
that without reinitializing the interface.
