  • Subject: IP over SNA connection (X.21)
  • From: Philipp Rusch <Philipp.Rusch@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hello all,
here is another request to all those, who managed it already ...
Setup is as follows:
SNA connection over X.21 line (ISDN) from one AS/400 to another,
works perfectly. We now wanted to add TCP/IP to that link, to be
able to route the PC traffic over the same (leased) line.
I defined (cfgips) an ip over sna interface on both ends, defined
the *ips routes, mapped SNA-names to ip-adresses, no chance at all
to get even a ping to work over that line !

         ---------                       ---------
 Eth.   | AS/400  |                     | AS/400  | Eth.
 LAN A  | "SYS_A" | X.21           X.21 | "SYS_B" | LAN B
 -------O         O------/....... /-----O         O-------
192.168 |         |     192.168..       |         | 192.168.1.250
142.7   |         | 145.7       145.250 |         |
         ---------                       ---------


With NETSTAT I see routes to each system on the other end, but
no telnet or ping gets through ... even when I try to ping only
the X.21-side of the same machine gets no response !
E.g. lets say I am on sys_a and ping to 192.168.145.7 which is listed
under netstat as directly connected interface - no answer !
(WRKIPSIFC says active to that line)

I can't get it to work ... am I on the wrong path ?

Any help appreciated, thanks in advance.

Regards from germany, Philipp Rusch
