Re: Cannot connect with Telnet client, other TCP/IP clients

CFGTCP; option 2.

You may have to stop the IP interfaces using option 1 (and very potentially remove all of them too) before removing the routes. The *DIRECT routes have always gone away when I delete the line configuration. (copy it to source first to recover it easily)

While Larry and others are much better at networking than I, when configuring IP on IBM i I always get just the base IP address and route correct first, then start adding the other stuff that's needed for all the communications types, adding each one at a time to pinpoint when something goes wrong.

How do you remove routing entries that were created as part of the line
and interface creation process (*DIRECT)? I can view the routes using
netstat *rte but I only see the one I created manually in the route
list. I see a reference to working with routing entries but I'll be
danged if I can't find the command......
