You are going to use the HEA to Bridge a connection.

First, when you did the MKTCPIP (bunch of parms for ip address, GW, Subnet
mask, host name, etc) under VIOS that was the name and address for VIOS to
use with IVM under ent0 which will use en0. Now you have connectivity via
IVM.

just reinstalled VIOS on the JS12.

on my system:
lsdev | grep Ethernet

shows:
ent0 virtual i/o ethernet adapter
ent4 logical host ethernet port ( lp-hea )
( plus other entries for ent1, ent2, ent5, ... )

the first install of VIOS I thought I saw that lp-hea was ent0. In
any case, I ran mktcpip that first time for interface en0. This 2nd
time did it for en4.

now, I made a mistake this 2nd time because I thought I should run
mktcpip 2 times. Once for VIOS on ent0. The 2nd time for HEA on ent4.

mktcpip -hostname vjs12 -inetaddr 192.168.1.22 -interface en0 -gateway
192.168.1.1 -start
mktcpip -hostname js12hea -inetaddr 192.168.1.24 -interface en4
-gateway 192.168.1.1 -start

I can browser connect to IVM on 192.168.1.24. Problem there is that I
dont get the navigation panel on the left side. In its place I get the
"internet explorer cannot connect" message.

Am trying to use rmtcpip to remove the tcpip config for en0. But I
cant figure out how to use rmtcpip to remove a single setting.

Figure I should install the new version of VIOS - V1.5.2.1 It says it
fixes a lot of problems. 5 separate downloads I have to click. Each is
huge, 500 Meg. Not clear if I FTP these ISO images to VIOS and run
install, or copy to DVD.
