Re: Operations Console (was I5 systems in production)

[kirkg@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]

I can't find it at the moment, but I thought with the current version(s) 
of OPS Console you could set the IP address range being used. I have in 
the past working with the support center done a REGISTRY HACK to set the 
IP address being used. Try searching the registry using the REGEDIT for 
192.168.0
and see what you find.

Operations Console (was I5 systems in production)






Vern,

I guess with a direct connection you're stuck with 192.168.0.x

If you run any software that enables SOCKS on your PC (the PC accesses the 

Internet through a firewall, such as Microsoft® Proxy Client, Hummingbird® 

SOCKS Client, NEC SOCKS 5, or others), you cannot route the subnet for 
192.168.0.0 to the firewall. Operations Console uses addresses in the 
range of 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.0.255. Incorrect routing causes Operations 

Console to fail. Check your SOCKS configuration and make sure that the 
entry is: 
Direct    192.168.0.0    255.255.255.0


This may not help then if you are using direct connect cable and not a LAN 

console:

PS - This V5R3 change for Ops Console may be of interest:

Neil

Where on iSeries do you do this? It is not handled in normal TCP/IP 
configuration, AFAIK. And it uses that special direct connect cable to J14 


or J13 or whatever, which is not Ethernet. If you've made this work, 
details, please.

Thanks
Vern
