Re: New public IP address not working

OK That would be just funny now wouldn't it.

Truth is I once called a customer because their production website 'Was down!' only to determine that I had an internal IP address in my hosts file from when I was there testing stuff.

Did you change your config on your remote pc to connect to the new address.
If Power i Access uses domain name instead of ip, check if your pc has a
"hosts" file that has domain name & old address.

If you can use windows command prompt telnet to make the connection, then
seems likely it's your remote desktop.

The Sonicwall is a TZ 215.

My policies aren't in the same exact order as yours, but I do have those
polices - except I am not limiting the i5 by port - I'm allowing 'any'
service.

I also have additional rules for our main windows server - which are
working fine. I can RDP into the server no problem, which is what makes
this i5 issue so frustrating.

p.s. if I ping our Domain.com, I will get our web hosts IP address - we
don't host our own domain.

What model Sonicwall do you have?

On the Sonicwall do you have in Nat Policies:
1st policie
Source Original = Firewalled Subnets
Translated = Wan Primary IP
Destination Original = Wan Primary IP
Translated = Local IP of i5
Service Original = Ports 23, 446-447, 449, 5555, 8470-8480 Translated =
Original Interface Inbound = Any Outbound = Any

2nd policie
Source Original = Local IP of i5
Translated = Wan Primary IP
Destination Original = Any
Translated = Original
Service Original = Ports 23, 446-447, 449, 5555, 8470-8480 Translated =
Original Interface Inbound = Any Outbound = X1

3rd policie
Source Original = Any
Translated = Original
Destination Original = Wan Primary IP
Translated = Local IP of i5
Service Original = Ports 23, 446-447, 449, 5555, 8470-8480 Translated =
Original Interface Inbound = X1 Outbound = Any

In your Firewall Access Rules do you have:
Source = Any
Destination = Wan Primary IP
Service = Ports 23, 446-447, 449, 5555, 8470-8480 Action = Allow Users =
All Enable = Checked

If you ping YourDomain.com do you get your new wan IP?
How long has it been since you changed your wan IP zone records?

commented about Re: New public IP address not worki:

May not be the case but I've seen issues where the remote IP scheme is
192.168.1.nnn and the network that the IBM i is on is 192.168.1.nnn.
When that has been the case the two networks can't talk.

First off, I'm a one-man IT shop, and networking is NOT my
specialty, AND my normal network consultant is busy dealing with
another customer's emergency already - so I'm grasping at straws here:

My ISP just assigned me a block of new IP addresses with our latest
upgrade, so I had to assign a new public IP for the System i.

Made the changes to the firewall, and thought all was well; all I
had to do was change the public IPs from old to new - but now I'm
unable to connect to the System i remotely.

You would think this would be a firewall issue, but I've poured over
this Sonicwall and all the routing looks correct to me. I've even
confirmed with the ISP that the IP is routed correctly on their end.

Is there any TCP setting on the i that would be related to a public
IP address? I've gone through the CFGTCP options and all I see is
the local IP and domain referenced. (I'm able to connect to my
desktop remotely via
TeamViewer)
