ADDTCPPORT may be able to lock it down. I haven't tried it. And there are config options in the sshd_config file that you can use. MATCH ADDRESS being the primary one.

is this a case where the IBM i is not as flexible as Linux? On Linux you
run "sudo ufw" to config the firewall. But on the ibm i there is no

Hmm, I forget, does failing password guesses in ssh disable the profile?
Not sure.
But this is becoming an absurd digression. If your IBM i is open to the
