Take this with a grain of salt because it's been a long time. The order should 
not matter in my opinion. z/OS TCP has a lot more features than TCP on other 
platforms. Finding the Unix equivalent is often impossible when z/OS does not 
have clearly defined terminology. z/OS HOME addresses doc was not clear when I 
last looked. My interpretation was that it's the home IP address for a sent TCP 
packet. In other words, when the packet is processed at the destination, HOME 
is where the response will be sent. I could easily be wrong and you will need 
to determine HOME current functionality.

 Thanks.

I don't use VIPA here, but I think I am okay, as I did a NETSTAT  HOME

And my PRIMARY is designated correctly with the FLG  P

EZZ2350I MVS TCP/IP NETSTAT CS V2R5      TCPIP Name: TCPIP          17:09:31
EZZ2700I Home address list:
EZZ2701I Address          Link            Flg
EZZ2702I -------          ----            ---
EZZ2703I 127.0.0.1        LOOPBACK

EZZ2704I Address          Interface        Flg
EZZ2704I -------          ---------        ---
EZZ2703I 10.5.23.231      OSA0F0QDI        P
EZZ2703I 10.5.23.240      OSA180QDI

But not sure if I can change this order of not, because it displays differently 
with just HOMETEST

We have a static VIPA first with the same IP as the old HOME IP. Then the rest 
of the interfaces: OSA, Hipersockets, VIPA's DVIPA's . Comment out the HOME 
statement. Make sure your start statements are correct.  The OBEY file the 
whole updated profile.

Subject: TCPIP Device/Link to Interface question???

Hi,
  Was wondering if someone could answer a question?

I am converting my DEVICE/LINK statements to INTERFACE in my TCPIP 
configuration on my test lpar.

I recycled my TCPIP and everything works, except I tripped an error on my HOME 
statement, because I think it uses LINK name, not Interface name?

My PRIMARYINTERFACE is my primary INTERFACE statement , again everything seems 
to work.

However, when I did a hometest, it looked okay with my primary IPADDR first, 
then Secondary and then loopback address which it should be.

But to stop the error from my HOME link name from occurring, I commented my 
HOME statement out.

That fixed my error message, but now LOOPBACK is first, then Primary IPADDRESS 
and then Secondary.

So my question is do I need the HOME STATEMENT, or what replaces it, if 
anything when using INTERFACE statement?

And/or how do I get the PRIMARY IPADDRESS first again?
